Now that I have "time" to clean up some parts before getting my new clutch. Anyone know of anodizers?

Not sure, the original 8" is 2700 lb PP and I think standard bus disc. They should be available after I get my new KEP double disc and Stage II or III PP upgrade. I'd just buy a new disc. Yeah I've soiled alot of clothes these past two weeks. Have you seen my other threads? |

Thanks for the tip and compliment. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Do you remember a name of the shop? It's closer to where I live. |

yep, you were so nice as to respond to a poor "wanna' be" V8 914 owner's plea for his first ride in a real V8 914..... i thought that was pretty cool of you even if yours isn't quite running yet. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) much thanks, roger |

You have a rain check on the ride in a couple of weeks. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
I could've fixed the oil leaks, adjusted the valves, and tuned the 283 but I already had the "ready to go" 350. I did not foresee the gear drive was going to be a problem with the h/b and the clutch was the wrong size. It's good I decided to swap engines because I also found some hose fittings that were ready to leak. |
