Hi Jeff!

I didn't realize you were in the carousel when it broke - I'm glad you and the car are ok. FWIW, I have the 22mm Weltmeister F&R and haven't had any problems (so far...) Then again, I'm...

If 9 o'clock is too hot, why doesn't Porsche make that the red area? One would think that the middle of a gauge would be the typical operating condition - no? Just a thought...

This should be a poll! I vote for the ez-out. Sears has what you need. They really work. I would use the square type - I think you can apply more torque. Drill the correct size hole, pound in...

After several years of DEs on stock brake pads (M calipers), I am curious to see the benefit of using Pagid orange (4-4) pads. My question is what the effect will be of using these pads only on the...

Thanks Warren. I appreciate your experience here. The higher viscosity at higher temps was also my reason for wanting 80W-140. My question was if there was a "slippery" effect from the moly that...

Oh boy, another controversial question - should you have a 5/6 point harness without a roll bar/cage? Obviously, the best solution is to have a roll bar or cage - however, many DE participants do...

So what is happening to all these stock engines being removed? Does anyone have a nice 2.4L (T, E, or S - I'm not picky!) with MFI that they would like to get rid of?

FWIW, I am in the middle of corner balancing my '72T, which has been moderately lightened (race seat, no rear seats, no AC, etc.) for the track, and it weights 2250 lbs with a half-tank of fuel.

pkfrdh,

I believe that mixing is already used to produce the mid-grades. I wonder if there is enough of a market to justify 100 octane as the high-grade in mass-markets. I'm pretty sure that if...
