    Thank you. I did notice it took about 10 days to ship to Canada and slightly longer to the U.K. for G60pops
    Looks like everyone has recieved theirs, and I hope they work out like you need.
    Thanks to everyone, Pete

    One last thing I'll post a pic of my Corrado as soon as I get the Lysholm Supercharger installed I'm getting the car ready to start showing. I spent many hours gathering the right parts to install this charger like I like. All stainless steel bolts with washers all XRP fittings, I did not like the hardware BBM supplied so I did alot of different things to make it my way. I still lack a stainless braided teflon oil supply line and aluminum oil return flange, I like aluminum it's so easy to work with versus stainless like drilling and tapping.
    I also had to pull the front flange and gear cover off of the Lysholm Supercharger so I could retap for XRP fittings for the oil return lines. Last you will be able to see the bushing we made on the tensioner too.

    One other thing I have in mind is a Stainless braided over teflon clutch line.
    I could go on and on.

    Ok no problem, but the price stays the same 25 dlrs. for one.
    20 dlrs. each for two or more to the same address.

    I also have the BBM tensioner but I found that I couldn't use it with the Lysholm supercharger w/ stock lysholm pulley and TT aluminum alternator pulley and stock length serpentine belt. It would have made the belt too tight IF I would have been able to get it on.
    So I went back to the stock tensioner (used two of our new bushings Awesome fit and finish) luckily I had one and serpentine belt tension was just right.

    Thats cool your not raining on no ones parade. My friend Alberto and I needed some and we started making extra for whom needed. The desighn was totally our own. We didn't know either that someone else was making these. At 25drls UK comes out to 37.9dlr U.S. so it's about the same.
