Yes, he recommended and placed an aluminum gear, as I like my Good and Plenty's in the box, not in my engine. On the Tip - absolutely especially from the super-quick turnaround, great communications, and reasonable price. My stomach was twisting thinking it would've been an outrageous number. Actually took it for a short run as the roads were dry and probably the last opportunity to drive with the Christmas wreath on the front for the season.

Great news and thanks for sharing the results on this thread. We all benefit from the exchange and further proof of “ listening to our elders”. We pray now for an early Spring and we all can get back on the Ford Road .....
Road trip anyone? ✔️
