This Richard Clewett guy is amazing.
He has a small house and shop in Manhattan Beach. Former machinist by trade he now has loyal following among Kinsler etc 8-stack fuelers.
Mike Trusty turned me on (thanks again Mike) to him back in 2008 and he was worth the 8 hour round trip.
Charged me a $100 bucks!!
And handed me some decals to put on cars😆
