well its not stolen. The story is just as I said. I have been on the phone numerous times with the seller and the owner of the dealership. The MSO was lost and Ford won't send a copy or can't. What they did send was not accepted by PA. So its a mess. I'm small potatoes so I get over looked. The ...

So it was never titled. Its a long long story with problem after problem, but the dealer has never supplied a ...

if you still have the stock E6 heads, you should not have a problem with 1.7 rockers. The valves are located higher up in those heads, totally different geometry. If you switch to E7..well most times no problems with the heads themselves..but a few have been able to run 1.7s also; most not.

almost means I agree with most of what you said. I do not know the chemistry of Sikkens, so if you have facts I bow to them. However, I am speaking of non-metallic SS paints. When talking of metallics, the info is different. I did specify I was atlking of solid colors, not metallic. This originated ...

almost....other than metallic settling in SS paints, there is nothing else to sink to the bottom. There is no seperation of pigments and other chemicals. There is no "clear" in SS paint, not as you would think of it. With a SS catalyzed paint system, you can sand all the way through it and find ...

there is only one gasket to use IMO...that is the rubber gaskets with a steel inner. These are great. You cannot over tighten the gaskets, which is what a lot of people do wrong. These gaskets are not cheap but probably worth it..I like them.

well Nick...you aren't upsetting me...this is how I like it :o)

As far as our discussion..in order to keep my thoughts accurate, we can't be influenced by someone's ability or lack of ability to shift gears. I'm talking automobile potential. And it doesn't matter how much is lost through the auto ...

well thanks for the link to the article. To justify it..it does seem to be an article that isn't weighted with many facts and is insurance based?? Just meaning it may be a little light hearted...not written by a hard core guy if you know what I mean.
As far a GM autos..there is no justification as ...
