[V8] Subframe bushes

[too many quattros]

hey, if i had a fair enough count of people who were interested, i would
pull my bushings and have them copied.  my v8 is under going a 4.2
conversion so i don't drive the car.  It cost me about $300 to do my set
because of the setup time.  material was nothing.  like $30 worth...or
something crazy cheap like that.  my bushings were done RIGHT.  i consulted
a with a  mechanical engineer friend of mine who pulled out a bushing and
bearing design manual and calculated how big the inner race needs to be.
and would u know it, the one from the factory rubber bushings was damn near
spot on!  so, i cut those out and used them.

in short, i am sure if there was enough interest, i could get a bunch of
them turned for under what it cost me to do mine.

I would also like to note, that i can't do this project until the end of may
at the earliest.  

let me know if anyone has interest.

oh, and dave, COME GET SOME 280 PARTS!
