That's the metallic "2 stage" stuff right? Looks good. I used some of that when I did my son's first bike and helmet. Flat black with metallic red scallops. It was cool!

Matt, if your run'n your truck now, what do you plan on doing with the pipes you got installed now? If the charge is foiled still, i'm down for purchasing it along with sending one as well with no foil. Chasing a howling ghost at the moment, and left with this to be the possibility.

Rite on....these CAC pipes lately have became gold, it seems. Had a chance to buy just the charge side from ebay, and matter of fact, i won the bid at 5 buks with 15 buks in shipping. It just so happened, that when he managed to find it, at that moment, his "dad" drove into the garage, he dropped the tube, and dad ran it over...lol

So your dryer was assembled in the US? What brand is it if you don't mind me asking. My washer and dryer aren't new so it will be something to keep in mind when it's time to go shopping.





Oh and the pipes look good too. Post up some pics when you get them installed.

Steel? I've only seen aluminum pipes on these motors.

paint looks good, looks marbled.

Early '99 were aluminum. Others are aluminized steel, unless they carried some over to the '99.5's. My '01's are definitely steel.

Probably a Sears Kenmore or a Whirlpool very good dependable brands, IMHO.
