Was the B18 a Chevron?

Yes it was a Chevron.
You were very lucky that Joe G. did not trade you.
Fred Opert-Doug Shearson. Now that was a scary crew there. Had to hold on to your wallet almost as hard as when dealing with Mr. Haas for Hewland parts.
As we both know, back then a race car was only good for a couple of seasons.
Hell, I virtually gave away both of my March's, a number of FF's, various production based sports cars, and in a moment true insanity, traded a B6/8 Chevron (with a blown up BMW M10 engine) for a small transporter.
I certainly wish that I had kept my old race cars. I would be able to retire in style if I had.
Hope you find your vibration problem and can cure it rapidly.
It would be a real pity to miss Laguna.
