He's talking about the whatchacallit....

I wish I had a couple more of these....didn't know there was a demand.

As it was, I had to jump two gators and a yard dog......in the rain......with a flash light......... in the Bat Cave to find the one I had for Spencer today.

Thanks Terry!
I am putting the 968 tensioner, on a 951 block.
Which will also have a 928 head.
And a 944S2 intake...lol

Ok well go further back in the cave thru the underwater cavern to the waterfall, repel down to the bottom by the unicorn drinking from the stream and follow the rainbow to the bottom where the other two sets are. I want one to. Damn it Spencer! You better have not got the last free floating 968 auto tentioner setup hookup in the world. I didn't want to by a 968 engine.

Yeah...he forgot the skittles....!

Everybody knows where there's unicorns and rainbows there are skittles...!

Speaking of skittles and rainbows....I know where Max's engine is sitting on that stand with the tensioner bracket ripe for the taking if the price is really right...

I was just attaching to how he got the first set for you, and there is as much reality in that story then finding two more sets like that then of me finding a set not attached to the rest of the engine. Seeing how I'm in line here.

Yea another side effect is being to lazy to drive to Stinky Smogy LA to steel yours. And the fuel cost...and all the other unseen overhead. Possible jail time... See, it's may be a good thing! But I'll pass on your nasty bricks down there. All I want out of the LA area is what I buy from Larts. He is one of my dealers you know. I give him $ and he gives me parts I want. It's an addiction. It's pointed out by my name as well as yours too, well not now somehow your rainman, ok then. It's ok anyways your not alone.

I dug through my box of belt tensioner stuff and this is what I have available for a 968. Missing the holy grail lower pivot bracket.

Voith, they were a teaser. I just cut in line, but for good reason. Unfortunately for everyone, vette951 is who I bought my 951 from and lives only 1.5hours south of me. And he likes what I'm doing to my 951. I'm all over them! Last time I picked up some parts from him he told me he had a set and I didn't have the $ then, because he emptied my wallet. But that was then. I almost feel bad, Sorry.
