Once more to the top. See post above for payment.
Any unsold I'll see if Roger will pick up (=higher price).

Still waiting on delivery of the plates to me...
In a faint nod toward emissions, but mostly to reduce the stinky vapors coming into the cabin, and stop steam/oil froth from forming in the 'road draft' hose, I added this ported vacuum line. It goes to the other rear port on the S3 throttle body (not the manifold vac port to the 7-way), which has a larger hole drilled into the TB. (The front ports are tiny.) This port is only uncovered at part throttle, so idle is unaffected.
No driveability problems, stinky vapors are definitely reduced, and the froth is not building up any longer. (It doesn't help after hard throttle with a quick stop, because there is no vacuum at idle.)

Looks like someone else picked up the slack.
(Now I owe a couple people some $$ for the ones I was not able to have made. )
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Porsche-928-...-/261086170462
IIRC, that eBayer is someone on RL?

BTW, here are the dims I used (previously posted on Reuterwerk), if you wanted to CNC your own.
The inside dimension is large enough to clear most openings - individual engines have varying amount of core shift.
The eBay one looks to have a little more room next to the bolt hole.
The plate was 13mm, the depth of the groove was 2.5mm.

I made them Ken. I needed one for the Hanson car and one for 85 my twin screw track car. So since I went through the trouble I figured I would look through my bar rack and wacked out a few more.
No need to refund your orders,if you want, email me and we can work something out.

Accidental post.
Darn no-delete ability...
Oh - that's why - you can't edit old posts, anymore, either.
