928 Specialists in Spruce Pine - they get things to me next day (if I order before lunch) way up here in Virginia. And your question tells me you don't know Jeannie (and Dave of course ) but you should!

Martin,

I know them well and send them a lot of business. Just really wanted to get this as local as possible so I could finish as soon as possible. They were my first choice if no local source could be found. I even thought about the 3.5 hour drive to their location. Unfortunately, it would have been in my wife's car, as the cam covers and a cam bridge are off my shark ( hence the need for 547).

Hi Ken- certainly understand that! Do you have a Fastenal source locally? They are pretty good on Loctite products. If I were still a Tar Heel, that's where I would look.

KenRudd

Fastenal has two locations reasonably near me. Calls to both indicated neither had the product in stock, but could order it:

Fastenal Company
424 Airport Boulevard Suite 200
Morrisville, NC 27560
USA
Phone: 919-465-2399
6.2 miles / 10.0 kilometers



Fastenal Company
205 Thomas Mill Road
Holly Springs, NC 27540
USA
9.9 miles / 15.9 kilometers

Ken,

How long has your car been off the road? I recall seeing your car (or their's another simular) in downtown raleighwood..

Could have been me. License U-TWO38

Car off road just since last weekend.

Went for a drive with some of the Apex/Cary PCA Members Saturday morning:

Got home and resolved a mildly annoying front end clunk:

Then felt a bit ambitious and went after my cam cover rattle:

It was a good Porsche weekend!

Okay, I now have some Loctite 574 "Flachendichtung".

Update, mainly to enter the information for anybody doing a similar search at a later date:

1. Got the Loctiite 571 at European Performance on Hillsborough Street. Those guys were great. Fun just to drop by. Lots of nice German steel.
2. Got the Hondabond ( Yamabonds twin) at Team Powersports in Garner. Let me say that you can get this stuff at any Yamaha/Honda dealer, but I recommend the drive to Garner. Why? Smokin Hot Eye Candy behind the parts counter. Seriously worth the drive.

You have to go back and take a picture!
