Nota,

We sure are going to take this thread to numero uno. You can bet money on it. And to some it might seem as blatant post whoring (hell, sometimes it is) but mainly we are a tight group of great guys here, just having fun as we go along.
Pics of yourself are welcome but not really mandatory if you don't want to. You can tag along for the ride or just make a quick visit, it's up to you.

Lol, this thread is unhighjackable.... you find a topic, we discuss it...

other than that it is not the world's most tidy engine compartiment, I don't see what's wrong with it... but I'm not an expert on older engines...

Yep, just don't get into PARF subjects.

Everything else is open to discuss.

Who would ever transplant an S motor in a lowly T Targa?
Someone with a wrecked S and a good T car with a blown engine. ?
