[V8] Dizzy Seals

[Scott Simmons]

The black/grey fuzzy scoring isn't a problem?  Righto.  "You've got a 
lot of carbon scoring here... it looks like you boys have seen a lot of 
action."

Tomorrow I'm installing one of those eBay radiators.  It came in the 
same box as the ones I sell at the FLAPS, built by Prolliance.  Took 2 
days to ship (shipped Monday, arrived Wednesday) so I'm happy about that.

I'll do a letter tomorrow that details any modifications needed to fit, 
etc.  The AudiWorld forums thread that I have bookmarked (07 - 27 - 
2006) that details radiator replacement mentions 1/2" self stick sponge 
weather-strips.  I reckon this needs only to be sticky on one side?  I 
found the stuff at Ace at $3 for 42" but it was only sticky on one 
side.  The double-sided sticky ran more but did not come 1/2" thick 
(only 5/16ths).
