The dual exhaust crossmember is 100x better. Stainless, is a waste unless you are tuly doing quality stainless everything. Aluminized is fine.

I worked on my engine a little bit today and will probably put it in my truck this week. I installed the flywheel, water pump, made sure it was TDC, and installed the valve covers (hardware came in), will probably have to remove them when I drop it in my truck to give me a little more clearance. Prior to installing in my truck, I will try to mount to wire looms and distributor so I can go ahead and get the wires the right length to make it easier.
