I wouldn't take any car to Silver Star. I purchased my '84 911 from a fellow in Glendale and he had taken it to Silver Star (I gues because it was local?). He brought it in for valve cover leaks and SS proceeded to slather thick silicone all over all four valve covers and the chain box covers - they were cemented in place.

I wanted to murder the guy who did that, not the correct way to fix leaks. Silver Star also replaced the clutch not long before my prurchase and the cable was horribly out of adjustment - also not rocket science.

There were a couple of other things on the repair order that were eye opening and I felt the guy was taken.

Edit: Oops! I misread the post - I thought he wrote Silver Star (in Glendale). Beware of them in any case.
