Hello CEGers
My name is Damien, I'm in Minneapolis and I'm a Contour-holic. (already donated to the site fund). I got a '00 SVT on Thursday and promptly put 2500 miles on it. I picked it up outside of L.A. and drove it to Minneapolis. What fun--and only one ticket.
During the trip I formulated some questions. I hope these haven't been all over the forums before. I tried searching, but wasn't able to come up with anything.
1. What do people think of the short shifters? B&M is the only one I've seen mentioned. Is that the only thing available? Where is a good place to get one?
2. I was suprised by how much road noise came in. Has anyone embarked on a project to reduce that? What has been successful. I was thinking of taking the rear seats/carpeting out and putting that "Brown Bread" stuff around. Any comments? Recommendations? Warnings?
3. I'm planning to get a DMD from Terry Haines. Any thing else I should do at the same time?
4. Any thoughts, help, advice or comments are welcome and appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!
