Andy - your approach with this site sounds very well thought out. This site could become a fantastic wealth of information.

As you may know from my various posts on Corvette Forum I've been "rebuilding" my '85 over the past two years. The details of the car are far too many to go into here but I've documented many of the modifications I've made to the car with photos along the way intending to put together a "how to" for enthusiasts who work on their own C4s. At my day job for the past 17 months I've been performing a no expense spared, 100 point restoration on a 1973 Jaguar XKE (E-type) which is in it's very final stages. I've taken a lot of the knowledge and techniques I use at work and implemented them into my own C4 restoration. Many of these techniques can be used by the average weekend enthusiast. As my C4 (and my wife's project, an 1990 Audi Quattro Coupe converted to full European S2 spec including 20V Turbo engine) come to a close this fall I would like to offer my assistance to you as a technical writer in the Tech Library and contribute all the information and techniques I've gathered and used on my own C4. I believe this site could really become a great wealth of information for all C4 enthusiasts. I'd love to help you make that happen. You can E-mail me at vtvette @ hotmail.com if you are interested and I can give you more information on my background and the articles I can contribute.

Best of Luck Andy,

Protective wrap is the best solution. If you need help securing it to the starter stainless safety wire won't rust. I *believe* some heat protective fabric comes up on the summit page when searching for "starter heat shield".

If you go to www.summitracing.com and search "starter heat shield" a good variety of options come up.

Hope this helps,
