Very few people know how to do what we (the members of this group) do, and what we go through to get great results. So when a gear head sees my grassy caliper, he laughs his butt off. But the average person wouldn't see the humor in it. It seems as time goes by, there are fewer of us lol.

Re: Project 6 Point Oh

Factory motor mounts only had 3 bolts, and the Pacific Fab mounts have 4 holes so I ordered some 12 point ARP bolts. They look good. The only down side is ARP only sells them in packs of three.
