Here's Mine ! QUOTE=maxemus;437702]John's machinist has agreed to make a small batch of top and bottom billet engine braces if we can get at least 5 orders committed to. $1695 for the set of lower and upper braces including shipping I kick myself for not having gotten these in the past so I...

Kevin, Planning to attend. Will be good seeing you ( it's been awhile). Sending e-mails to the FGT Gang and see if they can make it. Like last time, I'll get there early and try to save us some spots around the north/east corner close to an exit ( same area as before)...

Hey Ralphie, I thought Eric cancelled that event (?). Ron

Finally Installed Had the engine braces polished , but looked too "bright/shinny". So, had areas masked off and powder coated in statin black.

A Brave Few (3) FGTs showed up at the Super Car Sunday event. Surprising since the heavy rain fall just stopped hours earlier. It turned out to be a clear/dry/sunny day ( a bit windy). Very few other cars compared to normal turn-out.

Rain? The current weather forecast calls for "Heavy/Moderate" rain ( 100% Late Saturday night through early Sunday morning) . Question is whether it will clear before the event starts and the lead time to get there (?). I spoke with the event organizer yesterday . He understands everyone...

Yeah, last such event ( 2 years ago) drew over 25 FGTs. A group of us drove through Malibu Canyon Road out to PCH ( Pacific Coast Highway ) for lunch afterwards. Being the featured "Marque" car , FGTs will be in a specially designated section (upfront in the first row) along with the Shelby...

To Each His Own Kinda like that Carbon Fiber look. Will have to find a place that does a "non-fake" looking finish.

Got'em ! John, Received the engine compartment braces yesterday. And, they look gorgeous ! Will install for fit check next week while trying to find someone to do Hydro Dip Carbon Fiber print finishing. Any suggested sources ? Thx, Ron (ron1416)

What Version ? To clarify, are we talking about the loose fit /slip covers in Ralphie's post #33 or the tighter form fitting version in Roketman's post #15 ?

Trancas/PCH Event Pics Here's some pics from yesterday's Trancas /PCH C&C. Our (6) FGTs got almost as much attention as Jay Leno .

It's Still On Phil contacted the organizer this morning and this event is still on for this Sunday. Apparently (?) some confusion with the Malibu Car Show that's a separate event. Organizer said he'd save an area for (7) FGTs for those that wish to park together, but must be there by NLT 7:30am...

Rumor event CANCELLED for this Sunday (?) Rumor going around that this event has been CANCELLED (?) for this Sunday(9/6). Trying to verify. Any body have any info? Ron

I'd be interested in a set also.

(4) in & (2) ? Looks like (4) of us are planning to be there this Sunday (9/6) with our FGTs with (2) more tentative. It's the long Labor Day Holiday weekend and a lot of guys are out of town or have made other plans already.

I'm also interested in one. Been looking for a long time , but have not found one yet.

Have a great time ! Will catch up with you in Mammoth when you return. Ron & Helen

September 5, 2015 is on a Saturday. Is the gathering on Saturday or Sunday ( 6th) ? What time do cars start arriving, and are there any restrictions?

Ventura Hose-Man Too ! Merv, There's a Hose-Man in Camarillo just off the HWY101 that might be closer and more convenient for you (?)

My Fix to Problem Without getting caught up in the controversy over the use of K&N Air Filters on the FGT , I'll provide my fix to the problem (if you choose to use K&Ns). I found that simple rubber faucet bibb washers ( 1/4 Flat, 9/16" OD, .15"thick) will take up the gap created by the...
