4 things: v8 hose/ 3 responses



     No, I cannot find an open (or even connected!) hose of the type that 
     someone described on my V8 near the firewall by the air cleaner.  
     Sorry, I don't remember who asked this.
     
     >>I don't Think that Ned would tell you this..... When you pop the cam 
     >>belt on a 10v Turbo you bend all sorts of really hard to get to, 
     >>very expensive parts.
     
     Hmmm.  He did tell me this, though we were talking about the NA engine 
     in a 4kq, not the turbo.  I was surprised because I thought *all* 
     overhead cam engines smashed the valves when the cam stopped.  He says 
     not...

     I posted the information because I had received a request for info 
     after my question about what to do with an auto-trans on the track.
     
     My information about Steve Early was both a year old and 3rd hand.  I 
     don't remember who told me it.  As of this year, you are right, it is 
     incorrect.  He is not affiliated with Skip Barber.  Sorry for the 
     misinformation.

     Karen Chadwick does not read this list. (The subject came up at 
     Watkins Glen.)  She did for a very short time but unsubscribed because 
     of the volume.  Try her directly at the qclub address:
