I WILL be dynoing 100%, day has been requested off for a month now.
I am still trying to convince my friend to take his F250, so that's not a positive. Unfortunately I cant drive both my truck and my Camaro, or I'd guarantee atleast 2. |

| Yeah, this is why I was doing a recount. I really don't feel good asking Steve to open up the shop, and spend his saturday dyno'ing, for only 5 of us. |

I'm can't promise any amazing numbers since I'm still choking through stock manifolds and haven't had any time to tune.

All I've got are maybe's John. I believe Marv is coming again this year. At least that was the plan a couple weeks ago. But that was the last time I saw him. I've also asked an oregon guy that has a vacation home here. He has a 72 vette he'd like to dyno. He sounded optimistic but I havent seen him in a couple weeks either. And I'm hoping to dyno something. Finances are part of my problem, got to wait and see. Havent decided what to dyno yet though either. I'd like to try the truck again, but that means running 2 rigs there and gas has gone up again.
After reworking the car's ignition, i'm thinking of trying it again. New distributor, ignition box, carb, and 120gph fuel pump since last time it was on the rollers.. Maybe that would make a difference.
I'll have to let you know if/when I hear anything more. |

Count me in, but its more likely that I'll bring the 4th Gen, Third gens giving me too many problems right now. I'll remind my buddy cody again about it and see if he's still in. _________________

So this seems to happen every year. Hopefully the guys that said they were going to dyno will chime in. I am assuming that even if the dyno doesn't happen we will still be doing a gathering that weekend? I know a few folks were planning on being here to hang out and have some fun. If we don't dyno then we won't have Dyno V... will have to come up with a new gathering name. Let's not break the streak in the fifth year.
