     A  A When the time comes the muffler mods will be fully documented
     in the
     A  A PCNC newsletter (which is free for all to view at the PCNC
     website). It
     A  A might be some time thoughawe have been meaning to do it for

     A  A Today was spent tearing the underside of Lorias car off to drop
     the oil
     A  A pan to repair a persistent leak. It involves sawing off the
     emergency
     A  A brake bracket (Dennis Quella sells a bolt-in replacement that I
     have
     A  A standing by) and removing the previously installed bolt-in
     chassis
     A  A crossmember. The original is welded in (dumb) and we cut that
     out and
     A  A replaced it years ago. This bolt-in one appears to have grown
     since it
     A  A was installed because it sure did not want to come out!A  Lots
     of
     A  A beating and whanging and tugging and prying, and finally using
     a
     A  A broomstick and a BFH from above enabled us to get this asimplea
     piece
     A  A out. It was subsequently treated with the poor manas end mill
     (Harbor
     A  A Freight angle grinder) and will go in much more nicely now.
     A  A Finally we were able to drop the pan, clean off the underside
     of the
     A  A block and tap the pan rails flat again. It may be a few days
     before we
     A  A install the new gaskets and reinstall the pan. The parking
     brake hasnat
     A  A been hooked up for years, but that will be the next project, as
     we have

     A  A Lori worked hard today!
     A  A Good times in the garage!
     A  A Circling back around to the topic at hand, in the photos you
     can see
     A  A her Wilkinson exhaustsathey work great but the paint burned off
     long
     A  A ago so they look sort of ghetto. A PCNC member with a body shop
