He paid $1300 from AirGas. Even got all the original paperwork and the box it came in. SUH-WHEET!

That said, it's the second long trip I've put on the jeep since I installed the stroker. It was freekin beautiful, man...LOL Also my first long drive at night with the trucklites. All is good. Lovin' it.

I'll post pics of the welder tomorrow. Tired and wanna eat something, and have a cold one. G'nite CF

back of the head, drivers side, next to the valve cover, in front of the grounding strap, should be a small port in the top of the head
