What catback exhaust is that? And, I don't think that plastic ziptie will last very long on that header wrap.

I think they are metal zip ties

Yeah they are metal ties. The catback is obx. My resolution is to get this done before the weekend.

man I need a new catback system.... lol I'm tempted to do the Buddy Club spec II over axle, but I'm not sure yet. Is that OBX over or under axle?

its under axle. My current system was done with shop supplied tubing which fell apart within 2 years. I think they used cheap material. I spent more money patching it up than the obx i just got.

Update:The header would not clear Mr2 rack ujoint so i used stock "semi header" to obx. Clutch installed, bearings replaced, motor back in
Sounded great until 1k miles later the piston slap turned into s spun bearing..
Back to the drawing board.

May I suggest WPC Treatment for the crank side of rod bearings, wrist pins, top and lower rings?

WPC looks legit. 3tc's are cheap and easy to fix. i built this last one with my eyes close. Maybe this one time i'll keep them opened...hehe.
