Looking good mate, real good! Nice to see it's progressing! Just one question, with the extra hight of the itb trumpets, will they still tuck in under the bonnet? As the VH is a pretty tall engine allready ain't it?

Hey dude how are ya?Part of the reason for the itb's is to fit under the bonnet,the vh is a pretty tall engine but a lot of that is due to the huge spider intake manifold they have.The trumpet should sit about 45mm lower than the spider would have.

All good thanks bro! Ahhh, that's a very wise call, that'll make a big difference. Man they look so sweet! That factory intake has allways looked a wee bit funky eh? Keep up the good work man!

You need six more of those trumpets ... for me!
