Not really any faster way. It has to be uploaded & hosted somewhere. So unless your computer is a server...

BTW, edited your post. Put the painting above the insulation.

lol yeah it has been a while i'm gonna try to update more often. The thing that kills me is i have to upload to photobucket then paste it on the reply so it takes a lot of time. Is their a quicker way to do this.

I got the cut checking the tranny fluid level on jack stands and the ratchet flew out of the bolt and hit me in the face. lol

Oh, i did paint it before i put the gold heat shield on and that heat sheilding works really good i got to get the underside of the car above the downpipe sheilded and then wrap the pipe and i feet should be pretty cool.

well well long time no post for me well for the loan i got that and poured my life into this car and i think it shows I've got a ton of progress pics but I'm gonna just post up finished pics and if you want some in detail pics hit me up but all the fab work was done by me except the e-brake i came up with the design and i had a friend bend and weld it. any questions feel free to ask. as it stands now i have to tune it saving up for a wideband to do so, other then that it runs great does smoke because of defective valve seals but I'm working on replacing them.
