Brent, There is no performance difference. I always wondered why Rootes used the metal stamped gasket plus the fiber one. I think it is because one can remove and replace the intake manifold without

What agreement did you make between the body shop and yourself? Any additional bodywork that includes welding? Did you agree to apply primer or did you just want to prevent surface rusting? It makes

I wouldn't put any more seals on an Alpine engine because the valve guides wear out enough with the oil that they get now. Any less and they will wear very fast. Actually, I was thinking about an ex

Well, here are few comments on sandblasting: 1. Media will surely be trapped inside the body shell. It is impossible to get it all out before any painting, so during painting it gets blown out of it
