I dented one of the header tubes, scraped the bottom of the bellhousing, and scraped the bottom of the front-end... got lucky!

Unreal man, I can't quite imagine me doing that in my car in the future! Glad you didn't tear up anything bad. Didn't realize you'd get those M/Ts on the car so quick.

Thanks for the updates. Keep 'em coming!
