Tampa Fl Roll Call

This might sound like a stupid question but are there any issues turning/re-surfacing rotors that have been drilled and slotted?

Has anyone here installed Z1 silicone radiator hoses? I'm having a hell of a time getting the upper hose all the way on the the radiator neck. Here's where I have it so far, and it's not moving no matter what I do.

Soften the end of the hose in hot water, you will find it will go in easier, let it cool down before you put the clamp on.

Hey brother,
Sorry I have been off for a while.. Most shops will not turn Slotted or dimpled rotors. The gaps tend to chip there bits. I was trying to find a place a few years back but was unsuccessful in Tampa.

A quote from my buddy at Absolute Automotive, " Hell No " he didn't want to risk braking his machine.

If you do find a place please share it with us.. That guy will get some serious business from all of us !


***** I still have your hood struts, are you walking around yet?
