    They are the same design, and as long as both are E12 or both are 121, they will fit, but the 121 had the larger intake valves in the tii only.

    I can get Deb to maybe two car things a month, and with Ofest coming up, I guess I'm done for september. Are you still considering a Watkins Glen trip?

    for my morning adrenaline shot lately, I look up a 2002 part and check the current list price. Today I looked up a left roundie quarter panel, and found the new list is $1260! Catch up, realoem($930) although there are none here, there's 532 at AG, so it's not a scarcity issue. I hope my collection of parts will last my lifetime, I can't afford any more!

    in that area theres no reason to be stuck in a hotel, as you go west from there, you can visit the original McDonalds in DesPlaines, and at Woodfield mall in Scaumburg, theres gotta be a hundred restaurants, Or catch an El train to Chicago from the station a block from the convention center.

    I mailed Ben, but forgot the rest of you!

    Gaskets are the same, and you probably have flat top pistons, the piano tops as used in US 74s would interfere with the 121 head

    in Swabisch Hall, and went with some local Wurth guys to the Cannstatter Wasen, that was a blast, we also went to a Stuttgart soccer game, way different than our football fans. Wish I was there! 2010 is the 200th ann. of Oktoberfest, should be some party!

    driving a FF, he says he approached a turn which displayed waving yellow flags, after the apex he saw a driver seat complete with driver in the middle of the track, it came from another open wheeled car, he was ok, but this was before cars disintegrated purposely to dissipate crash forces

    if you can get it started Sunday, come to Willowbrook for the vintagefest, all the local gurus will be there, one of us should have a starter we could try if all else fails If you have token voltage at the starter while cranking, there is a bad connection in that circuit, could be the ground or B+ cable, the accessory power and body ground cables can give good supply to the lights, ignition, etc, so checking the lights while cranking doesnt help, you might try bypassing the cables with jumper cables from -terminal to the block and +terminal to the starter main terminal

    I tii'd to work today, and parked it with the 335s up front, lots of gawkers and drive by double takes! But what's aking my throttle hand itch is the steady stream (apx 1000/hr in unofficial sample) of harleys heading north on us41 past my open window towards the 105th celebration in Milwaukee this weekend. I'll be joining them as soon as I can blow this popsicle stand!

    The first proposed Chicago convoy overnights in Cleveland, any other thoughts?
  17. Dave3x72tii
    both ways, showing fitment of 68-73, only the left is available, I remember buying ambers in the 80's, my 68 was rearended and fixed in the early 70s, it has one red and one amber because reds were nla then, my 72 was redone in 1990, and it has fresh looking red ones, not sure of the source. It's fun finding something thought lost forever, but right now I really want new amber ones!
  18. Dave3x72tii
    right lense is nla (670)

    I got a room at the Colonial in WG, there are four 02s in our group, word on the street is there's others already registered there, the hotel owner is aware of his status as 02 central.
  20. Dave3x72tii
    I ordered what was shown as a 72 lense, it came with a red center, no other active lense numbers are shown, anybody know?
  21. Dave3x72tii
    I just checkd the current list and couldn't believe it! I should have bought a bunch back when I could afford them

    at dmason2002@hotmail.com, I will do whatever I can to help you, let me know what kind of stuff needs to be held for you, some of us have hotel rooms, if that doesn't work, we can figure something else out. I will be down there sometime in the afternoon, exect time depends on whether I ride to Milwaukee for the harley 105th thing that morning. Dave

    is flying in to give a talk, too bad the Great lakes beer fest is that Saturday, I might not be in the mood for loud exhaust. Are you going to the Windy city vintage fest?
