Probably need someone to cut the veggies

I could cook a really really large amount but crawfish is fuggin expensive. I paid like $14 a pack for tails last time

I'm not sure if the amount I intended on cooking would be enough just yet. Probably need to do three times what I normally do

Thanks man, appreciate it. I think we're supposed to go to the grocery story together and buy stuff and we'll just all put in. Crawfish, I'll buy locally since there probably won't be any out there.

I may see if Jason has a big pot I can bring too because it would be a lot easier to work with. I'm hoping two batches of chili will be enough, they fuggin destroyed that chit last year

Slice em and dice em?

lemme know if i need to bring something.
otherwise I'll just bring cash so we can split the costs

I might be able to get a bit of deer sausage if you want to cook some of that.

Never cooked that lol.

Big thanks to Alberto for helping me find a clutch quickly so I can get this taken care of. Ordering a Competition Clutch Stage 2 kit with the flywheel.

Also, I found a set of topspeed headers for $250 brand new. Should I bite? I know crawfords are the best. But the brakes + headlights = me being broke..

Only person I can think of locally that had them is Chris. If you see this, are they worth it? My uncle said he would spend the hours to install them.

If you dont mind installing them, headers are worth it.
at least on a SC setup.

You're looking at about at least 5-10 hours to install.
Remove y-pipe
remove test pipes
remove coolant lines on passenger side
remove steering knuckle on driver side
remove header heat shields
remove headers (bolts will be a PITA)
pull oem headers from bottom of car.
install new headers (dont forget the gasket)
tighten headers good (will more then likely have to re-tighten once they warm up)
install coolant lines
reattach steering knuckle (put it back correctly if you want your steering wheel straight)
install test pipes
install y pipe
bleep coolant lines/add fluid

-done (maybe)

BTW I don't know **** about header brands and performance.
This will not be a job you want to do twice though.
I'd take my time and do as much research as possible.

Deer meat is easy to cook. It's basically like ground meat.
