Excellent Jim, good progress here, now............these other '5 parts' that will cost the consumer ( or client - better term ) another 800 to 1,000 US clams.

in interests of Full Disclosure...............what are those 5 parts !! Might one of them be a 2.0 liter. 4 valves per cylinder, OHC Inline Four Zetec engine ??? a minor part like that ? smiles. thanx, scott

PS. I know you won't take me up on this, but I LOVE marketing and promoting, i'm very good at it, ( have decades of experience and speical training in it from way back in the 80's in San Francisco by Business Consultants that charge like $ 3,000 a day to consult ) - and I LOVE selling too. I COULD move kits for you on the West Coast, oh could I ever ! but I know you won't take me up on it.
