I think it will be quite expensive Eric, I am guessing at about GBP 200 to move them all.

Now that Raymond is back to work (1000th post ! Happy Birthday Raymond ), I'll ask him if there is a set available in Switzerland and will let you know asap. Thanks a lot for your help.

Humnn.. Hi Raymond
Is there a complete set of P0's available in Switzerland somewhere ?

By the way, these P0's are cheaper than the standard 4 michelin tyres I changed on my TT Roadster..amazing

I'm not yet back to work, had a holidays till now and stayed in St.Tropez without Internet, what a calm week...

There are no rear PZero's available at the moment, that's the reason why I try Michelin TB15

Hi Raymond, happy new year.

What is the matter with P Zero's ? They tell me they are W rated so a better rating than P zero's.
The price at about 120 GBP for the front and GBP220 for the rears are pretty good, it is just the Fed Ex cost.

Default Countach Engine Removal

What specific distance does a countach need to be off the ground to remove the engine so the gearbox doesn't hit?

In meters about 0.75 better is 1 meter to be sure. However do you know you can split the gearbox from the engine before you lift the engine over the back !!

Thank you Terry. No, I did not know I can split the gear box off. I didn't think you could reach all the necessary bolts. If this is done, does it make installation any more difficult?

It is better to re install the engine and gearbox together, as getting them together whilst the engine is hanging is very diffuicult.

However for ease getting it out, once the engine is almost vertical the gearbox splits quite easily, you have to lift the engine up a bit higher to get the transmission drive shaft to come out of the engine but not a problem really ( in the scheme of things )
