Can you imagine spending that amount of money and having the local dealership techs tearing into your engine under recall?
I thought that was resolved before actual production?

The front suspension and rear main seal was repaired by the factory from what I read.

It depends. I know some excellent tech guys at the local delearships (I race with them). I also am aware of some bad ones.

The good ones I know can make a pushrod engine run for hours at 7500 rpm. They know the exact thousands of an inch required to make 'em hum. They know the proper oiling pressures/volumnes/etc. The have NASCAR backgrounds and mechanical engineering degrees. Yea, I'd trust 'em.

The others? I wouldn't let 'em change my oil.

Watch for a $10K price increase on the GT.
