You make a good point. Unfortunately, the wording in the S2RB predates the complicated situation we now have. Who determines "normal" service manual collection..? I think of the "service manual" as i

Another good point made. This might get into the realm of "diagnostic bond" (similar to "teardown bond") posted by the protestor to diagnose the OBD II system. Charlie

My reference to suspension was in reference to the OBD II question. I have seen protests on stock suspensions solved by FSMs, too. If you supply your FSM and it doesn't have that info, burden of proo

How do you figure this? If the flat rate to r&r a Spitfire cylinder head is 4 hours, and a fair shop rate is set at, let's say $75.00/hr, the labor portion of the teardown bond is $300.00. Why would

So, if you are protested on something where just the head comes off, and it has to come off at the event in order to adjudicate the protest, what do we do? Fly in "your guy" at the protestor's expens

You seem to forget that people lie, cheat and can be misinformed. Lets say all the guys in the Widget club swear it has 1.60" intake valves. Maybe that's because the OE 1.40" valves have been outrage
