489ci is nothing to sneeze at...... :2thumbs: have you thought of putting headers on to improve performance ? or just happy with that stock look of the manifolds  :dunno: :bananasmi

Either way it does look great :cooldancing:

Sampy's dyno. I'll use cast iron manifolds and 1 7/8" headders just for comparing difference.
