<RAVE> All Hail Power Tech
These guys are fantastic. My car went in for something small that turned ugly, fast. Mike went far out of his way to help. If your ride needs anything, including parts, go see these folks. www.pwr-tech.com

Went in to replace timing belt. When they opened it up thay found that the PO left some tools in there when he did it last (in 1997!). A socket and extension. Wrecked everthing in there. Everything was ruined. Also PO snapped AC compressor mounting bolts and left it hanging with some bar stock wedged in to keep it in place. They also found a few odds and ends that needed adjustment here and there. They definately went over the car and looked at everything and worked with me on the price. It runs and drives 1000% better now. I'm very happy.

Glad everything turned out all-right. Talking to Bob Jr. (the tech that did your work) at the NNJR 914 tech that was held there on the 8th he mentioned the socket and extension along with the PO's "creative" repairs.
The GT3s is Roy Chongs car, Milledge motor very fast.
Guards Red 944 have you joined NNJR/PCA yet? Now that you've squared away the front of that motor we've got lots of ways for you to enjoy the car.
