I thought about doing my radiator hoses last night, then decided MEH and didn't do it :P Maybe tonight or saturday.

I've brought turbo to the cookout for the last several years, but now I have TWO beagles and Anna's out of town...can't decide if I should bring them or not....

Yes it is VITAL to be tuned when showing up for the cookout! LOL.

I think the 3/S he is tuning is planning on doing the Dyno Challenge on Saturday. Thats my guess.

later,
Curt

I had wished to FINALLY finish tuning the talon and have the cage installed, but time has just run out. So, I'll jsut bring it out as-is. I'm already assembling a new list of mods/parts for over the winter, including a new ported/polished head, better springs/retainers, cam gears, kiggly main girdle brace, and to clean up the engine bay more/paint car.

How about you leave the thing alone, get a real tune, and just drive the thing sometime before the earth runs out of fossil fuels.

No offense Swifty, but when's the last time you went WOT in your car? Get that thing tuned so you can have some fun with it already! Being in perpetual mod mode does not mean you should never tune it!

:D

Haha that is impossible.. Im thinking he either cant drive stick so the car just sits and gets mods over new mods, or maybe hes scared of the power that might be made if he does get it tuned.

Swifty, I thought you said you couldn't find 110 race gas anymore, so you're car was undriveable... Don't put 89 in there cause you might blow the welds off the manifold!!!

Let's see.. what do I have left?

- Interior detail
- Engine bay is cleaned, but needs a polish
- Remove front plate LOL
- Full wax/detail exterior
- Detail wheels
- Reapply front badge on grill
- Rewire driver side city light
- Install new splash shield on both front wheels

And I think thats it. :/

Well, I was gonna show up. But, I need to tear it apart a lil bit and see if anything was wrecked when my balance shaft belt came off and was stuck on the cam gear... So, chances are, I'm out. Might show up with my friend and he's gonna be running his 1g on the rollers.
