Roll Call for Dyno Day

I am debating about going on Saturday. I might break the Z out and cruise up, but no runs for me. I am gonna keep dynoing at C&D cuz they are close to my work and I can get good comparisons between mods (plus 50 bucks for 3-6 runs + A/F ) Dean is a standup guy, and those that are dynoing for the 1st time will have fun. Who is defintiely going on Saturday?

You'll hear the exhaust leak too. Gadket blew out between the y-pipe and OR pipe. It has a mean lope when its cold, but smoothes out slightly when it warms. Dont forget its ground on a 114LSA.

well I was planning on going out there, that was up until this afternoon when my Z was sitting on the lift with the rear end on the ground and no end in sight

I am in the process of replacing my rear end, and of course i can't get the brake lines off the wheel cylinders. So now my car is on the lift waiting for me to replace the brake lines and wheel cylinders. Once that gets finished I'm replacing the harmonic balancer and pulleys.

I've been at it for 2 12 hour days so far, gutting my blue Z and getting it all set to put into the black one...... and i get to start tomorrow bright and early


i just want my car to run right so i can put it back on the road

Thanks for another great day Dean.

I found out that the Hypertech tuning doesn't hurt my car, but it only gives me a extra 2 or 3 HP.

The only thing that could have made todays event better would be to have some naked women around. ( there is a rumor that the next event will have some naked women )
