I don't care what anyone says;I still think it is an Enigma decoder circa 1944. |

It is not on my work bench, but from a picture in a trade magazine. I know how to post pictures , but with a computer working part time it makes it difficult. I am having difficulties getting product from my machine shop. Seems they have plenty of work and also have been making parts for the Jaws of Life machines that are being sent to New York for the rescue operations. After I get the next run of gears I am going to have to look for a less busy shop that can supply me faster. I want to to a 4 valve belt system, but I have to finish the 2 valve project first. My engine is doing quite well by the way. Right now I can't sell something I can't get made. Very frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

That is very interesting! Hey Herb, not to bring back a long discussion, but when are you going to come out with the HDT replacement for the TR? I can't wait to change it and forget about it for let's say... 100K miles (at least the 52K miles promised (read recommended) by Ferrari on the TR owners manual will do). |

I had a feeling it had to do with belts. That belt has to be 6ft. long. |

If it is not supposed to be changed then what is it doing on your work bench? Reg. Posts. I had the same ting at one point. You have to go through the first preview before it takes you into the upload screen. First you see the same symbols then you go to upload. Make sure to have the right brackets and the right slash. |

We have a WINNER, It's a Subaru 2.5, 4 cylinder. With a factory recomended timing belt life of 105,000 miles before changing using the HTD belt. |

That's easy: Subaru But I'm not sure if its the SVX flat-six or the regular Legacy flat-four. |

These computer repair personnel are like some Ferrari repair outlets. If it does not work right then make it faster and you will be to stupid to know the difference. |

Herb -- get a mac. it just works! It is amazing what hassles people will put up and take as acceptable in a computer that they would never tolerate in any other consuker product..but then again we are ferrari owners, not honda owners. |

Actually I was trying to post an article I ran across today but since my computer is still not fixed properly after several attempts by BEST BUY, it locked up in the middle of the posting and only posted what you see. I am about to throw in the towel and get a new computer since this one seems irrepairable by incompetent people. |

I've looked at it for 5 minutes and after squinting really hard I saw all these floaters and trails of light in different colors. Now that is interesting! |

Cool graphic -- are those symbols "Your Image Here" like a foreign language or what? I got to sit down and think about this one a bit. |
