Sounds good to me. Probably the route I'd be going down if I was to take mine to the next level but probably a bit far considering its my daily driver.

I'd still include an external gate as a safety measure, shouldn't be too much bother especially if you are going custom on the manifold. Was thinking it might be possible to get a darkside VW manifold welded up to some custom plates to bolt to the L series head. Would be pretty much a bolt on job then just depends on the spacing on the pipes and if they match the exhaust ports. You'll need deep pockets though!
