mulv, you make it sound like this is a widespread catastrophic failure on spf's . its not . my lord man, your car must be at least 7 yrs old. my 156 was made in summer 1996 and you are car 136 so it is undoubtedly older than mine and it just failed after all this time ? spf continues to improve the breed from evolution vs revolution, and improvements have been made . that area is now reinforced due to the advent of so many folks jamming 600 hp and 600 # trq into these lightwieights vs what was expected to be the engine range/ hp range back when your car and mine were built. the fix is not that big a deal for the few that have had to do it, and not many have . i only have 10,000 miles on my 7 yr old spf and no failure . if it goes, i fix it. settle down, you fixed it, on a 7 yr old car, now go and enjoy the ride. geez, i bet you drive the dealers nuts with your newer civilian cars and warranty issues. peace. bill
