What's up guys/gals,
Just wanted to throw up a post to check on one thing. If I recall the right size bolts for a 4.6 header job are 8mm X 1.25 right? I think thats them but I wanted to make sure. I am talking about the bolts from the header to the head itself...thanks in advance

Well Bruce got Charlie's blue coupe, his van, and convert. His red daily driver went to a long time customer. And the red lx hatch was sold to someone I didn't know and it has changed hands a couple of times so I've heard. Ranger I am unsure of as well as his F-250. As far as all of Charlie's stuff. I think Bruce sold off a lot of it and still has what he choose to keep. Bruce rented out Charlies old barn and it is now a place for select Shelby club members to rent out to work on their own stuff. It was nice to see a lot of Charlie's old stuff stay with the people that he was close with.

Yes your right. Byron did get Charlie's cobra. He is in the process right now of turning that car into a work of art. Supercharged Big block pushing around 800-900 horsepower, Dodge Viper brakes on all four corners. Built solid just the way Charlie would have liked. I know it will be stupid with that much power but Byron just wanted something well....stupid fast. Bruce was a long time friend of Charlie. They spent many years together attending shelby club events and functions. He also worked at Charlie's every now and than. He took care of all of Charlie's final arrangements since Charlie's family wasn't all that close to him. I believe Charlie's family sold off most of his stuff to Bruce for next to nothing. Somewhat of a thank you gift for all the work he did to make the arrangements very nice. Bruce had placed himself in a very good position to make that happen.
