    You can buy ErichW's hinges off Ebay any time @ $160 shipped. Very good quality SS reproductions.

    See this old thread for details.

    I still have a set of the titanium hinges made by Shawn French years ago that I would sell for the same price if you want to save a few grams in weight.

    Thanks for the tip Tom. Cheaper than the ones sold by GT-Racing...

    I saw the ebay hinges after I posted this yesterday. Thanks for the heads up.

    Do you have any pics of your titanium hinges?

    While saving grams here and there is nice the main reason I'm interested in the 911R style hinges is to be able to use a stock 993 airbox lid with a 3.6 conversion. With the stock hinges I'm pretty sure the airbox lid needs to be cut up in order to fit. I don't want to run a K&N cone filter.

    Thanks for the help!

    Tom,

    Dohh - I guess I forgot to let you know that yes Chuck did get the car all straightened out for Peter. Thanks again for the great recommendation!
