We can give you combined shipping, but we will have to do it via refund as the software has some limitations.

Thanks

do these keep you from tightening it to tight like the stock one?

I think what Matt means is that yes the cap will tighten, but its made of solid aluminum and doesn't have the ratcheting mechanism of the stock cap. This ties into what Mike mentioned earlier, that the threads in the valve covers are cut inconsistantly and orient the caps differently from VC to VC.

It's kinda sad how a product like this (which is an easy and popular sell pretty much everywhere else) can't even get more than a couple of bites here...

I thought SHOs were supposed to be growing out of the "cars owned by poor school kids" stage. :(

I might have jumped on this if I wasn't in such a rush to get my car back together, and I just bought a TON of new upgrades (from SHO Source no-less). If this stays idle, and not dies for long enough, I may jump in too. It's a gorgeous unit, and I can't seem to find any 710 caps anywhere! Only "OIL" caps.

Nope. Besides the known long timers here, look at the member base. All HS kids and struggling college kids. Or laid off individuals. ****, I am looking at getting out (again) and back into a Volvo.

Look, seriously, can I just get the firewall vacuum hoses now? I gave up hope on this thing ever working out a long time ago.

We can send just the vacuum hoses if you want.

It sounds like there might be building interest in the caps if you want to hang on for yet another week. I am thinking about just building a small run and rolling with them.

Thanks to everyone for the recent support. Our machinist returns next week, and I will work with him to get these caps going.

I have placed an order as well.
If I need to buy another oil cap, I will.
I would like to have these before the convention.
