Default Steve Weiner Tribute
Apologies if this is old news but I just received my copy of "The Gold Plated Porsche". I suspect that most on the board would love the book but I did wish to mention the author's very nice tribute to Steve Weiner on page 50.
Thanks
Jack

Yup, Steve Weinger is a great guy. Always puts up with my insane questions even though I have yet to actually buy anything from him.

Steve is an outstanding source of 993 information! He was the source of many mods for the car in my avatar. Kudos for the well recognized efforts by Steve to impart just a bit of knowledge to all of us as we go down the 'slippery slope'

He's helped me as well! If I ever need my valve guides replaced or something along those lines, I plan to ship the appropriate "chunk 'o engine" out his way.

ill join the chorus.. steve is great.
i can not thank steve enough for his patience and unlimited goodwill he has shown me.
Perhaps steve can set up a shop back east and i can show my appreciation by making him the 'god-father' to my turbo - that way, he would be responsible for its growth and keeping it on the right track.
