Chairman's Award: Chairman's Award - Issue reason: Your outstanding contributions to this community have not gone unnoticed. IN my view you are a worthy recipient of the (rarely used) Chairman's Award.

Nah, they have a lot of wearing surfaces and consistency of lubrication is paramount. Large bores with squirters, the oil pump is gear driven and also spins two balance shafts, turbo oil feed a bit on the shy side from what I’ve seen too. Underlubricated, they will pick up bearing metal in the balance shafts and unravel from there.

The model to get is the fully lux with “Crystal Lite” roof.
