Cool! No promises just yet. I still haven't fixed my failed lifter but, I did order the parts today and just started removing the intake. Hopefully I'll have it back together by the end of this weekend and get some tuning done. Now, back to the garage...

Why do things always break a week before a camaro event?

Transmission is slipping in 1st and R. Don't know if I can make it.

Thats what I'm thinking. Then that also brings up the idea of how my gf would beat me after disabling "her" truck!

My V6 car needs a new ignition control module and it will run. I'm gonna have to sport that for a while so I can figure this out.

Better figure it out soon. I know you have atleast 3 methods of beer transportation! Laughing

Haha, I told her I was going to dyno the truck instead! It would be fun to take the V6 car down, but there is no way I'm driving it all that way. Its suspension is too rough on the kidneys.

Weenie, cant take a rough suspension j/k

Psh, I'm running 500 front, 175 progressive rear, AND my car weights 2980lbs with 51/49 front/rear bias! Boorakasha!

Lol, anyway, its not me I'm worried about its the woman. I'm gonna dyno the v6 car hopefully soon, but I'll do it up here. We have a mustang dyno about 5 miles from my place.

I install double heim LCA's when I go to race

I want to come for the dyno! As of now, I am free. My wife's not too hot on the idea of me driving to Oregon for 1/2 the day as we are in the middle of trying to put our home on the market...and as of now, we are contending with a busted water main Sad

If it's not one thing, it's another. Glad it's not my Z28 that's busted!

anyway, If I do go, I was planing on leaving in the AM on Saturday. All of us who live in Washington should caravan down! I live in tacoma. I know a few others live north and east. We should put out a tenative time and place to meet. just an ider Cool

I think most of the Washington peeps drive down Friday night.

I'm off all day Friday, so I can come down as early. As long as someone in the neighborhood is home. Someone let me know and I'll plan my drive accordingly Cool

I also bought some chips from Moates so I can get some tuning done to this TBI.
