LOL, the way the phone is ringing today, it's a wonder I'm getting anything done.

Sounds about right, if there were no busted bolts, stripped triple square bolts, things that don't want to come apart right.

Kenny's car is going to look fantastic, just taking longer than I'd hoped.

Did you run into busted bolts, stripped triple square, etc. on mine?

Would love to see a couple pics of the progress if for nothing else than to alleviate the withdrawals!

Here ya go, I just finished putting in the pins in place of the rubber seals. Glad I saw these in the pile before I put the new covers back on, I'd have been mad doing it all over again.





Drivers side is done.



As soon as I finish the passenger side, the intake is going back on, it's finished and ready.



These two bolts sucked my ****. One was drivers side, bottom triple square. The other is the lower one for the Hal Sensor.

Thanks for these pics. I've always wondered what those pins looked like.

Are those the ones from 928 Intl?

I have to go in there, install those pins, and reseal my vavle cover.

Sean,
I was under the impression there were "special" pins available to plug and seal that area better on the S4's>.

That's what those pins are, they replace the rubber ones.

It's getting harder and harder to answer them now.

That was a night to remember, or was that, to forget.

It's a pleasure Charlie, I'd not know how the hell you were holding up if it wasn't for those phone calls. Easy way to check up on Dean too.
