There is a Turbo DeLorean for sale on Ebay. It's located at a shop about 10 minutes from me. If anyone is considering bidding on it, I can go have a look-see at it for you. I know it has a single BAE turbo in it. I haven't seen it yet, but I'll go if someone is seriously interested in it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/ebayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=48144505 2&r=0&t=0 ---Dan Vin#... does it matter? It's an 81 DeLorean!!! :-P _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

To save a few bucks Chrysler just leaves them off! I've replaced the rotors twice on my "97 Dodge - they just rust away on the shiny surface, only in the inside, in about two years (at least here in the road-salted north). And they warp anyway. I was at a dealer last week and these things were piled up in the garbage. . . . I'd leave the shields there and not start drilling holes in them. Also, they are plated, if you start drilling them they will rust where you drill the holes.
