Jim and Group:
We will be there even if we have to PUSH!
Colin Cohen and I will be there showing our just-completed
urq AAN 20V conversion. Have not driven car, will be towed
in New German Performance Trailer, and hopefully parked with James
Bufkin and Bob Pastore.
Teething problems haved popped up as can be expected with a radical
conversion. We have a clutch problem won't disengage
although we have replaced master, and will replace slave (was brand
new), which hopefully will become operational. Otherwise it is either
disc rusted onto flywheel, or wrong throwout bearing or other
measurement problem.
We measured three times before cutting, relied on BTDT recommendations
and
were assured by several of the top pros in the business that our setup
was
absolutely correct. I ran into this problem when putting a 5speed into
my
BMW 2002 Alpina.
Since this setup is a lightened MC flywheel, special Sachs
pressureplate, and Trick " 5 puck" disc to handle
the high horsepower, who knows! Hopefully we can get it all working so
it will be a driver and not a pusher!
Looking forward to seeing everyone. We are the Zermatt (silver) urq
with Euro bumpers you can call us at 301-440-5529. Please come over,
introduce yourselves, and help us push!!!
Hope for clearing weather!
