    Sounds like you picked a winner in the brake pad department.

    Understandable as you have put a lot of sweat equity and hard earned money into making it a great looking car.

    That is insanity! I put two wide band O2 sensors on my Lotus they are a couple of inches apart. They read exactly the same. Sorry you had to go through that.

    good luck with the test!

    It’s always a relief when I pass and don’t have to go back for two years.

    Ok guys I need some help with a problem I have. I'm trying to make some changes in the engine compartment. I was going to have the valve cover power coated, but they tell me I can't because it would melt. So what do you think I can do? I have other ideas but right now this one is my biggest problem. I have seen other cars with valve covers of different colors.
