- Well, you could always bolt up the larger brakes and related components from a GT6 to help stop the car again. Could be lots of fun! Go for it! Or, if you're really worried, I know of a couple of He

- Well, thanks to all who have responded to my informal poll about the blower (which appears not to be a Roots type, but a Shorrock type vane blower). I think I need to research this thing a little mor
