Posts: 3,156 | I'm back, but I would not call a week in the Minnesota cold followed by a week in BORING Beaumont Texas a vacation... (I was working) Anyway, I replied on the Compact6 site. Give me a call at the work number above, and I'll come check the progress. Since the snow is threatening, I most likely will not have the car down here again until spring... ------------------ "Speed's just a question of money.

Posts: 3,156 | !!!Good News!!! the draft of the engine swap manual is nearly complete! I spent many hours last night and today getting it ready... I have the draft copy in my hand, and will be reviewing it, correcting making small changes... It is currently 33 pages long, and may grow by a page or two in the final version. I have a list of people who have expressed interest over the last six months or so, but it would be good to get another "I" from those interested. I WILL be contacting you all individually, but just to make sure I don't miss anyone, mail me again. It should be ready for distribution before Christmas!

Posts: 3,156 | The manual is done. 50 pages long in final trim. Please contact me if you are interested in purchasing it. Also, this past weekend I installed a complete M roadster rear sub-frame. I will be doing a similar (but much smaller) booklet on this job as well. I will keep you all posted as to the progress of that. This coming weekend, I will be installing a complete M3 front suspension, with M3 EURO springs. That should be fun. Again, another booklet in the future. Just wanted to keep everyone informed. I've been travelling a lot, and have not had time to visit the site before now. hope to see you all at ti fest!

Posts: 3,156 | It is $50.00, + $5.00 for printing/binding, + actual shipping to your address (at any speed you desire). Anyone interested, please e-mail me directly with your shipping address, and I will calculate actual total cost for you. PayPal is the fastest and easiest way to complete the transaction, but bank check/postal money order is also accepted. In all cases, document ships upon receipt of payment, naturally. A tracking number is provided. E-mail me at jim.leach@sulzer.com Thanks to all those interested. | | | 04-23-2003, 06:06 PM | #51 | Moderator Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Bouncing off the rev limiter in CT! Posts: 3,156 | Hey, everyone. I think I'm going to have a couple manuals made up to bring to RogueFest this Saturday. If anyone wants one, I will be selling them for $50.00 even- no print fee and no shipping (obviously). Thes are for pick-up at the show only, and once the few I bring are gone, that's it. If you know you are going, and are interested, I will make one up for you and 'hold' it. IF you don't show, your's is the last copy and someone is there with a $50.00 bill, it will be sold. Hope to see everyone there! | | | 11-06-2003, 02:30 AM | #52 | Moderator Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Bouncing off the rev limiter in CT! Posts: 3,156 | Just an update, as I have been quite busy with work and preparing my new Land Rover for Africa 2005 ( www.drivetheglobe.com)... No rear sub-frame booklet, and no front suspension booklet are planned at this point. If you would like assistance, you can stop by or call me. The books are good (all receipents have been quite pleased with them) but the time and effort that goes into them is quite large. I unfortunately do not have the time to produce them any longer. To anyone who has been waiting patiently for these new booklets, please accept my apologies, and know that the ti will continue to evolve (but presently all my time and money is accounted for...)
