I'm not too sure exactly what the "pin depth" is... want me to email you the docs I've scanned? It's all the G31-specific pages for rebuild.

Hmmm, this is a timely reminder that I need to retrieve my Turbo manual from the shop... though I did scan the gearbox section IIRC, have to dig that out and see if there is a spec... will let you kno ...

Your mystery items look to be all from the AC system being removed.

Wires for compressor, wires behind the headlight for the pressure switch by the drier, and a cut hose.

Not too much in the engine bay; only real concern might be if there's any of the firewall insulation/noise damping blanket still present.

For the interior... the carpet, sound deadening, and AC uni ...

Yeah, so the problem with fiberglass is that water could get underneath it and wick in, then start corroding the metal underneath.

But it's easier than grinding out rust and welding it back up prop ...

The seam sealer you want where all the individual steel panels meet... and you can even use it to close over small rust holes, as long as all rotting/rusty metal is removed to bare clean steel and the ...

Small update, the customer with the 931 conversion was in Saturday to visit his car (more work still underway) and take it for a test drive, see how things were going... last time he drove it the chas ...
