    Seeking recommendations for rewebbing my seat belts

    Have you looked into putting spacers between seat and rails? Rail would sit on top of the spacers and then bolt through rail and spacers.

    Kind of ruined

    $17 is too steep. It will not pull more then $8k. I payed $17k for a rusy free 73 with all original interior in good condition and original 351c, C6, 9" drivetrain last summer. Almost pulled a trigger on good condition all original 73 H code mach 1, manual for $20.

    A good read on motor oil

    Yes, I tested it in my 3.8 Genesis coupe which is is tuned to rev way into the red, 7,300rpms. Car has a bit low oil capacity for hight revs. Was running old version if QS and after Cerma, tests had less metals.

    A good read on motor oil

    You can do your tests by sending oil to Blackstone Labs (on daily car). I used to do testing on two of my cars I beat on, 3 years in the row. One vehicle runs in boost alot and under higher operating tems, the other exeds factory redline by 800rpms. Oil x, oil x plus Cerma, oil x. Less iron...
