  1. FYI, Not all 2L Roadster 5 speeds have servo synchro's. In fact, most have the warner synchro's. There is no reliable way to tell by looking at the trans. You have to open it up. If you know what the toothed edge of the brass synchro ring looks like, you can sort of see it through the oil fill hole. If it's in a car, you can tell the difference by the way it shifts. the warner synchros feel more normal, like detent balls alone. The servo rings feel more damped like pushing the gear lever past the detent balls and then through some other resistance before the gear engages - if that makes any sense. To further complicate things, all of the roadster 5 spds have servo synchros on 5th gear - so you can't just take the tailshaft housing off. If you're looking or roadster info, start at 311s.org. There is a for sale forum there as well as a list of vendors.

  4. Yeah, I was restoring the Bugeye about the same time I got on the net so that was my first web site's name and it continues. Only had that car for a couple years. I've got a 72 Z also - hasn't run in years. It may be the next project.
  5. Excellent - that's what I was looking for. Nice Z car by the way, Thanks
  6. Anyone have a picture or two of the rear Street flare's for 70-78 that MSA sells? I'd like to see a couple of pictures of the raw flare - not yet on a car. If you've got a picture or know of one on the net, let me know. Thanks,
