. Jeff, I went down to a local tranny shop. Walked in with my SC snout, and asked if they could press it on and off. The guy was a little nervous after he asked me what it was on, but I told him, "Let's do it!" He was very careful, and fortunately I've had some experience with presses, so...

. I'm not sure about the Invo name, but I'm familiar with Nittos. I've had a set of Extreme 555's for both my C5 Vette and my 996 Twin Turbo. My personal opinion, there are great tires, especially for the price. They seemed to be fairly low road noise tires, had good grip, and the price as...

This is probably a repost, but I don’t remember seeing it. This collection, most likely several collectors, have some really outstanding cars. F40, F50, Enzo, Carrera Gt, Bugatti (probably spelled that wrong because I could never afford one), GT3’s etc, and it just goes on and on. Oh, and by...

. Jeff, this is not a "write up" on the pulley, but it includes many pictures which may give you some help seeing things in advance. One other thing, you can reserve the gear oil when you separate the snout from the main assembly by making sure you have a clean container to catch it. See the...

I thought I saw a posting for someone offering "carbon fiber vents"? I need to do something about these warped vents. What are our options?

. I just bought a 997 TT. The very first question I asked, when was the inservice date. It was a Porsche dealer, and they very willingly offered all the detail I needed. This ebay seller is a Ford dealer, so, like I did, get the in service date written into the sales agreement, and I...

. Jason, I've long considered myseft as being quite experienced and knowledgeable at car detailing, but I have to say, your site has given me some great tips. Terrific work! Btw, I'm looking forward to receiving the foam gun and mitt I ordered today. Thanks again!

Any of you guys that are kind of thinking about a Porsche 996 Twin Turbo, here's a great one. I bought a new 997 Tip, and believe it or not, I bought it because it was a Tiptronic. But this TT, if you happen to be thinking about one, is a real gem! I just put it on ebay at...

. As far as rear visability, when I got my GT about a year or so ago, having never driven one, my first drive was a bit horrifying! But like Mousecatcher said, and others, you really do get use to it. Now, as a daily driver, with the distractions that go with that, that would be a concern...

. I heard these conversion numbers all the way from a low 7.5% to, like this one, 25%. It sure seems like the loss percentage from flywheel to "rear wheel" could be a little more definitive. I'm know there are varibles, but these transaxles are all the same, etc. Can anyone enlighten me...

. I received my letter today, thanks DBK for all of your efforts on this issue.

NO!

. And there's probably even more bad news. If you get hit and there's pretty severe damage, chances are the offending party's insurance company may have a damage limit coverage around 50k, which is sufficient to comply with the law in most states. Let's say your repair is 80k, or whatever...

. Received tire paint, thanks Steve.

. Steve, I sent you a check on Nov. 12th for the white paint. Did you get that ok? Tnx,

. Yes, I did see the car. Or at least I saw the pics he posted. I agree with Steve about the residual value of the engine. I'd pay 30k for the engine and transaxle right now, I really would. These motors seems pretty bullit proof, but I intend to have my GT for a long time. I'd find a place...

. I think that is a good idea, but you got to think the insurance company is smarter than that. There's a lot of parts value left in Fubar's car.

. Beautiful Car!

DBK, but wouldn't the dealer, to some degree, have an interest in getting the go ahead from Ford to get the work, for the profit tied to the warranty work? Maybe not looking closely at any engine mods, and just focusing on the "broken transaxle". Does Ford really watch the dealers that...

I was thinking about getting covers. Does anyone have a pic or two? I'd like to see how they look, and fit. Thanks, Bill
