**Torque Tube Bliss Kudos Black Sea R&D!
With all that's been going on in the past year,I finally got the chance to put my track car project back together and in doing so I had Constantine at Black Sea R&D rebuild my torque tube that I had sent him many months ago.He inspected it and reported back to me things he was concerned about with the splines and some damage that was on them and I elected to use it anyway.He media blasted the thing and painted it up real pretty like and installed 3 super bearings and shipped it out.When I received it I was extremely impressed with his attention to detail in his packaging and his concern that it made it to it's destination unharmed.The packaging was a work of art.I unpacked it looked it over,spun the shaft and I was quite impressed with how little resistance was required to turn it and how smooth it was.I installed one of Carl's steel shift ball cups and assembled the tube and shift rods,installed everything back in the car w/new cluch and hydraulics.
I fired it up and FINALLY, no more hippy hippy shake and wurring noise.It's like a whole different car.
The experience with Constantine was educational as he answered every question and knows what he is talking about.His eye for quality and his pride in his work and concern for his customers is exceptional and what is lacking in alot of American businesses these days.Kudos to you and I will be outfitting more of my fleet with his products.

Wow, thank you for the kudos Ed!
Really glad you liked the final product! Looks like you did a nice clean install, that bell housing looks very clean.
Hope you have many years of 928 bliss with it!

I received the tube for my GT on Friday. Turn-around was incredibly quick and and I can only second everything Ed said about personal attention from Constantine. I have not yet unpacked mine because the packaging is a work of art (Constantine, don't tell anyone what my packaging looked like when you recieved it!).

Hi Jim,
Thank you for the nice words about our services! As I said , we just about have the packing down to a science by now.
Looking forward to hear what your first ride feels like when you get it back together.
And about your packing job, you secret is safe with me.
