  1. That's really nice. I'm envious!! But the front should be dropped 1/100".
  2. RP isn't the only synthetic with similar additives. However, everything I've read indicates that this film is too thin and the conventional oils with lots of zinc are better with flat tappet cams. Again though, my information may be outdated.
  3. I'm not a turbo guy but holding heat "in" the turbo is bad, isn't it?
  4. Synthetics still don't have the adhesion power as a conventional racing oil with "lots" of zinc compound. The former quickly drips away leaving bearing and cam surfaces relatively unprotected. I'm sure synthetics will improve in this regard in short order. ***Maybe there are products available I'm as of yet unaware?? NOTE: Modern conventional oils have less zinc additive due to issues with catalytic converters. If you run cats you'll want to look into this. Having said this, I'll be running synthetic but will have a full roller motor plus a lube pre-charging system that will be activated for a few seconds before start-up. I'll also have an ignition disable switch so I can crank the motor a about 5 seconds to evenly lube the bearings before startup. Yeah, I know I'm a bit anal-retentive.
  5. I have a pair of ML Monoliths that I wouldn't trade away for the world. Detail and imaging are outstanding. I don't judge them by their appearance nor by certain specs which, though more useful than amplifier spec criteria, are often useless in real-world terms. I trust my ears.
  6. Just saw the trailer... definitely gonna see this one... Eastwood kicks azz... makes me wanna shoot some bad guys in self defense.
  7. Yipee... SuperDan to the rescue!!!
  8. Serves you right for using Kar-en Carpenter and Mi-chael. Jackson songs.
  9. I tried to live in the state of grace but it didn't fit my personality. These days I'm back-and-forth between the states of shock and confusion.
  10. I'm staying out of this one.
  11. I don't think that's what Doc meant.
  12. It's well-known that foam is a poor "preventative". But I may have to try it for the tactile stimulation.
  13. Use a non-synthetic with lots of zinc compound additive. It's better for flat tappet cams... but bad for cats.
  14. Annoying ads like that are bad for business. It's like having someone call you every day trying to sell the same product that you don't want and after you've told them to stop bothering you. It makes you want to stop answering that phone.....
  15. Did you complain to SuperDan?
  16. You have a nice system!! I'm running a basic stereo stepped metal film attenuator splitting the signal into an old Forte Model 4 powering a pair of Martin Logan ESL's and into a Behringer DCX2496 x-over w/ EQ driving a Behringer EP2500 for the bass drivers. I may have to re-insert the Forte F-44 preamp for the gain stages though.
  17. Oh, man... and I thought "I" was a sick puppy. Get some help, dude... or wake up to your own reality. Dreams are the vents for our true desires, ya' know???
  18. Where did you find that? I didn't see it anywhere in the specs.
  19. I have a very nice early 260 rolling shell (same as 1973 240) w/ a clean title. Very little surface rust... nothing bad at all. PM w/ email address for pics if interested. Located in N.E. San Antonio, TX area.
  20. I'm just pi$$ed that I can't get some of that freebie gov't money to fund "my" EV project.
  21. I have a FG hatch for sale including the Lexan window. PM if interested. This thing weighs practically nothing. But be aware... these lightweight hatches are only for those who don't need to open them all the time. If you need constant access to the cargo area then stick with the steel hatch. However just adding the duck tail is fine.
  22. You're making adapters for all four corners? Estimated price for 5-lug? You selling the Porsche CV's too... possibly a complete turn-key bolt-on kit?
  23. Agreed!!! BTW, start screaming at the top of your lungs when you, err... at/near that special moment. She just may learn to like it "loud".
