Wow, looks great!!!

I notice you are in NV. Any chance you will come to the FDC party on Jul 12?

Also, I'm sure someone will ask you, but there are a couple of guys here that are trying to put together a GT4 registry (peter Gt4 and Roel). You may want to get in touch with them to get your car listed.

See this thread for more info:

Here's a picture of my GT4. I have a factory chin spoiler, currently uninstalled because of driveway clearance problems.

Mike,

Interesting. When I bought my car, it had Swepco 201 in it. No problems thus far.

Let's see some pictures of your GT4.

I had some bad experiences with Swepco 201. About 15 years ago I bought a case (4 ga.) and put it in my '75 308/GT4. It developed a bearing whine - turned out to be the pancake bearings in the clutch-trans transfer case.

I also put it in the differential of a BMW 635i and after about 1000 miles developed an input bearing whine - new differential.

I now run Redline 75W90 in both my 308 and my '91 BMW 850i. No complaints. I gave about 2 ga. of the Swepco away.

just had my mechanic put swepco 201 in the gear box of my 348 deffinate improvment in shifting, i noticed the difference right away, it was a little expensive $40 for a gallon, but well worth it, hope it works as well for everyone else
