You got it, Nick. Consider it one of the perks of being on the forum early! Email you're snail mail address and I'll ship em out.

Phil Collins kindly sent me a set of hidden bellhorn springs - the ones that go by the pedals. When I went to put them in my parts box I found the set I'd got years ago and forgotten about. I now have a spare set free to anyone who wants them.

People, I just installed a Ferarri fan under the radiator. Fits like a glove and sounds like a jet when switched on. Things are improving in Wankelworld! The fan is Ferrari Electrofan part number 173030. It weighs 5.5 lb., is 16.5 inches in outside diameter and 4 inches deep at the motor. It has straight sides allowing it to fit in a 16 inch space and it comes with a custom rubber seal. Installation details and more pictures at my web site

I got on the list for Herb Sander's molds. They come with instructions, video and wax. Cost is simply the cost to send them on to the next person on the list. Contact Herb to get on the list.

I decided to go with locking caps and have a pair of Jack's nicely made fuel caps left over. Brand new, in bags with spare seals. Offers?

For those who haven't done the upgrade yet, here are a few tips... 1. Saw about 3/16 off each MM4 to get the same length. There is still plenty of thread in the insert. 2. The rod end inserts are hard to tap. Not a place to have weak threads. Be prepared to have an expert do it for you. 3. Drilling the wide washers is easy, but you really need a drill press for the bellcranks. 4. You'll need eight AN4 7A bolts, matching MS21042-4 nuts and ten stop nuts for the mm4s. 5. Watch out for clearances - things that touch now that didnt before.
