Okay, I just got off the phone with Steve and Mar. 6 is a GO! Now I'm all excited!
Who: Everyone!
What: Dyno Day
Where: Portland, OR
When: Mar 6th, 2010
The dyno runs will start at 9am, at Modern Classics Auto Service (http://www.modernclassicsauto.com/). The address for the shop is: 5717 SW Jean Road in Lake Oswego, Oregon. Google maps says it's here and I'm inclined to believe it...
I talked with Schultzy and he's graciously given us the go ahead to use his place to sleep (if we'll be doing any of that... well... I know I will). I'll pass it on to Mike for rules and regs for his house, as well as directions. Since Mike has opened up his home for us I hope we treat him and his house with respect. Pretty soon we're going to charge at the door. Any questions? Ask away. _________________

Barring any stereotypical dyno-related curses going around, I will 110% be there bright and early Saturday morning, along with a certain big block. |

Is this going to be a Friday night thing like last year, or Saturday morning? Cause some of us are still marginally employed. |

I plan on making it. Might just bring the V6 this time, hasn't seen the same dyno since it had leaky injectors and barely broke 100hp I don't think the 89 would change much with just the rear gear change since last dyno
I'll put in for the Friday off _________________ 92 Camaro

We start Friday night per the norm. Will figure out how soon I can be home when we get closer. Got the house to myself so no worries.
I have some plans for activities.

I would go to just see what I dyno for sh*ts and giggles, but don't think I'll have the time for it, it's around the time I take a Police Dept. written test. |
