Thanks Mike... i actually sawzalled the big corner off my manual box, and went through ..oops... I made a little cover for it, epoxyed it on... and noticed that it had fallen off...so i took box to work...ground it flat....made a new cover 1/8'' thick... counter sunk some screws...itll be ok ... im thinkin about ditching the hedmans in favor of some Mad Dog Headers.... THe Hedmans have plates, and arent legal for the stocker combo im gettin ready to build(and they are 2'' primaries... a little big) 400/325... Im sure the hedmans will go right back on, with new cover on the box, but, im tired of messin with them, to be honest.... they will be cleaned up and put up for sale....
