    Hi guys,

    Thought I would share a couple of pics of my 30k service. Slow going as the temps are not ideal for working in an unheated garage. I decided to pull the engine to simplify some additional work including engine bay detailing, all new coolant and fuel hoses, emissions delete, etc. Just got my first of many parts shipments in so I'm eager to get back to it (as soon as it gets above 35!)

    Looks great. 'Also in NOVA and I wouldn't consider doing an oil change in this weather. Impressive.

    Thanks Geno,

    To my knowledge they are original. They are on the to do list for the full Leatherique treatment in the Spring. Good condition, but the leather has hardened a bit.

    Looking good! What a nice GTB you have. I actually love how the engine looks without any intake paint on it. We are in the process of an engine out major on our 85 Euro Mondial Cab right now.

    Thanks! Love to see pics of the Mondial!

    I like the raw metal look too. Still not done with them. I actually use Nuvite, which is a muti- step product we use to polish the aluminum bright work on our aircraft. Still need to remove the intake plenum and runners to hit them as well.
