The landscapers cut their phone line.  Just got fixed. I spoke to Bob  and
he said my front and rear housings cleaned up with an .002 lap.  I do need
a new center housing though as he took .003 and said he'd need another .005
to get the job done; I guess there was too much corrosion, so I'll be
talking to bruce soon.  I think that would squeeze the o-rings too much.
No nitriding was needed with only a .002 cut. I still have to get all the
rotor seals out, check the rotors, get one rotor housing and rebuild the
turbos yet.

Bob said Bruce has a website now but didn't know the URL.  Bruce?  are you
there?? Did you get my tapes?
