Why don't you have a CNC Machinist redo the Hardware, I did the same with the BRM Inserts...

I could need a set of Empi Valve Cover Hardware aswell... Wink

My friend has a complete NOS set of non GT covers, and he happens to be a machinist Smiley So the hardware shouldnt be a problem. We will be looking into reproducing the seals soon, too.

I got my new wheels & trucks for my 33" ALVA skate, some Indy 169's & Rainskate yellow jackets.  So I can go hurt myself again @ the skatepark. Here is my 44" G&S  that I  managed to sprain my knee with @ the park a week ago.  Not Cal Look, but the only stuff I get in the mail other than bills

Ex- skater here too!  I started in 86 on a Schmitt Stix Jeff Gorosso board.  I then had a John Lucero Schmitt Stix, and then a slew of boards that I broke there after.  But I still have my Santa Cruz Steve Alba board for pool skating (tracker trucks and OJ II's.)  I can't say that I've been on a board for skating in over 5 years though.  I'd love to get back into some carving session in a pool again though!

I got 8 of them this morning, the air filter is a part of a set of 4 I have to fit on the stacks once I receive the carbs and have rebuilt them with refection kits

aha! well is still skate. and this year is turn 30 and have a boy of one year old. so no quitting now!!! still love it like when i started in 89... been a long time but not one single sport has given me such pleasure

as for the parcels on my doorstep, i had a big big box of csp this week to hopefully finish a great deal of the car (brakes, lights, electrics) and i couldn't resist to buy me a birthdaypresent as well... like empicollector but i got number 43
