what a cool and very impressive build. hard to believe you'd have this kind of time available. subscribed and looking forward to the final product.

i also like the idea of 'RAM AIR VI'.

Did you use NOS 1/4s or aftermarket? How did they fit?

I used aftermarket quarters. On a 1-10 scale I would probably give them a 6 or 7. But I would say that they fit better than a lot of aftermarket parts I have bought,
