well at this point yes.
I got up at 6 to be at a dealer this morning at 8 and then be home at 11 to pick up my kids to havet he parts to put everything back together. Well the dealer is no-more, I called 3 dealers with in 2 hours of here and no one has anything. Worthless.....

So I guess I will order from on-line... they all said "I can order that" I said "so can I, and have it delivered to my door".....

That sucks...needing a part on a weekend and dead in the water. I was looking for part recently and called Suncoast. They didn't have but they told me what dealer in the US had it by what their data base said. Thought that was pretty decent they would divulge that info. Hope you find what you need!

Not sure they are a p car dealer anymore. I was going to try them. But couldnt find a number and couldnt remember their name. I called the one down town pgh but parts was closed today.

I need to open a p car dealership here... they all got bought up by Penski and he is draggin his feet getting this super duper dealership going.

Anyway I tryed suncoast. I really tried to buy from someone we know and trust but their website sucked.. So the AOS and the gaskets came from autopartswarehouse.com..

It really amazes me how differnt this parts supply is from the 928 parts supply. The parts houses are VERY knowledgable, FRIENDLY and always have the parts and they know all the "while you are there" stuff too.. I certainly miss my Jeanie and David from 928gt.com.

Anyway I have a new aos for a 3.6 engine. 100$ shipped anywhere in the lower 48 US

That is the hard way to remove those clamps. You need a flexible hose clamp pliers
