Like Lil A (Big A) posted. If anybody is interested in our meeting, I can provide you with directions if needed.

Guys. . don't forget to send me information that you would like us all to go over at the meeting.

Kat - Shhhhh can't tell anyone about February... that's a secret. We can't tell everybody that we are getting Bill K's VB and TC installed... . shhhhhh.

As far as the Gauges go. Kat do you think that I should put the transmission gauge in? Or should I ask Bill to help me out with drilling the hole in the transmission pan in Feb?

<font color=blue>transmission pan..... baddddd. Seriously you don't want the sender in the pan. You want it in the line going to the cooler to get the true reading of the temperture of your fluid. Remember the compression fitting I told you about????

I am going to need to ride in your truck after the transmission bombing. I cant decide which way I will go yet.

Kevin
I was told to put it in the cooler line as well. I didn't and put it in one of the test ports on the trany. I can read the temp of 1st and reverse but thats about it. I need to change my gauge setup.

Well when we get back from the trip I'll be happy to take ya for a spin (no pun intended). However be warned its gonna be alot stronger after that trip. A few things other then transmission work going into it. #ad
All I can say is BOMB's away!


On another topic, have you finished coming up with a way to change the wastegate yet with what you told me you were gonna do? I could use the extra boost to control EGT's when out there in the altitude and there for could leave longer marks next time #ad

I haven't had the time yet to try it. Sometime this week I will shut the truck down long enough to try it. If I can get another 4 psi boost I would be very happy. I will let you know what happens.

Hello to all Colorado members. My name is Jordan. When I saw that there was a chapter here in the area I had to join. I see that I missed your first meeting. I would like to go to the second meeting,That is if my truck is done. I bought a 99 Qc 2500 4x4 at Klode's auto auction in Denver a month ago. I went down there to look at it and it was to nice of a truck to pass up. The truck was a total and I am in the process of rebuilding the truck now. I hope to have it done by the first. Fingers crossed!

BTW Kat... First off, Alex didn't get to try my EZ. Alex, Sean and myself were going to meet. . and Alex got called back to work. So I still need to get together with him and have him try it out. Maybe the 14th will work. Second... did you ever get your pictures developed?? Did they turn out? I want to see them if so.

Dave, thanks for the offer. Having the truck done shouldn't be a problem. What year and model is your truck?

Kevin when are you going to put the TC&VB in? Are you going to do the work or have someone do it. After you get it in can I ride in your truck?
