John Nikas stopped in this summer with a 'mule'.  A styling exercise I think
was initiated by GM and executed by a tier one supplier. ZO6 underpinnings
with split window coupe retro stling cues is very attractive with modern
performance.

A picture of several new TR3/TR4 scroll seal centering tools.  The dimensions
reflect a change from the factory manual, after three independent reviews took
place in recent history. The new dimensions suggest that the TR engineers
reduced the clearance of the scroll seal and the manuals did not get changed.
Tools made to the factory manuals may separate the scroll seal at it's split
seams, creating a source of leakage.

These scroll seal centering tools will be available through BPNW, Moss, and
likely through TRF.

The seal centering tool can also be used with Chris Marx' new VITON seal
conversion. The modified scroll seal and the VITON seal can be obtained in
NORTH AMERICA from ARE.
