I realize this is an old thread, however this subject should not go away. I think any of us that work on our own cars have a fairly good understanding of the components and there assembly. How many have pulled the rear sway bar to find the bar rotates in aluminum retainers with no poly/ rubber bushings?. What are the spring rates of your front and rear springs?. Who's coil overs are they?. What British car did the wiper gear boxes come from? What is the Baer Part Number for the brake assys? Who built the oil cooler? ETC,ETC

If you wanted a Cobra manufacturer that actually cared, you chose the wrong car. I won't beat this dead horse any more -- I've been beating it for going on eight years. You're never, ever, ever, ever going to get a quality manual for your CSX car. Kirkham owners will have to rely on the "we started out strong, and then tuckered out" manual for those cars -- but it's better than nothing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, some guys don't care whether they get a manual or not; but some do. And for those that want them, and considering they're dropping a cool hundred grand on these cars, they should damn well get one. And a finished, quality job at that. But, I don't really give a shi* about this, honestly -- it's one of the reasons I bought an ERA, and if a future purchaser thinks a manual is a big deal, then he is at least forewarned by having this subject come up again, and again, and again.

Do you promise?

You won't beat it anymore and then you go on and beat it anyway?

No. I have indeed stopped beating it, but I continue to point out that I have stopped beating it, ad nauseam. It is arguable that my beating it, and my subsequent pointing out that I have now stopped beating it, are similar in countenance to the untrained eye.
