Shoot me a list of what you got. I can always use spare parts.

No more engines from Neal, just parts and peices. That is until the new shop opens.... The Nitro Shop ( got the name spelled right this time)

How big of a difference would you say there is between the stock and the modded Top Elite 5? Power? Mileage?

have you done any testing with the 5 using the werks 2058 pipe and manifold? would make it much easier for me to be able to do this if i didn't have to change the pipe.

I know. I've added it to my cart and starred at the screen several times today. I would like to get my b5 modified too.
