The BVV meet is on Saturday. So far, I have three people confirmed to go -- surely there will be more.

Weather is supposed to be clear and cool.

Well, I wouldnt say struggle... I just shopped around, and decided to get a used pair and a few other misc. things from this guy in PA. except the valves were not capped, so I'm going to guess all these years of sitting and stuff with moisture and all that getting in there they are shot. Nicky wouldn't even attempt puttng them on the car...

I just need to get them from the guy up in MA. he wants $89/piece though <_<

Yes -- Don can be pricey, but he has things that are unobtainable anywhere else. These valves are the same in the 140s as well, and my friend who advises me on my 142 tells me that some people have been able to swap out more commonly available adjustable proportioner valves, but he could not recall which specific ones would work. If I can get some timely information on this, I'll let you know.
