Will anyone be bringing a torque wrench? I need to re-torque my head bolts. If not I guess I could spring for one , they are on sale at SEARS. See You all soon Kirk

 

[BillH]

Kirk, I will have Torque wrenches, both inch and ft lbs.

[bighammer]

I'll have mine there too.





Just curious, what kind of projects are people planning on doing? I have only heard a few of the planned installs & mods.

 

[Rob Thomas]

Bill, do you have a count so far? Is there room for a few more people?



Thanks, Rob





Pete, I'm not bringin' any BOMBs, just my shining personality, and a box 'o tools.

[TStetson]

LOL hey It was time well spent. I got a couple of thing I want to button up also so I should have time to spare. I hope. BigHammer

[Paul Herioux]

Just booked room at the Baymont. Had to call it in as Expedia was showing no rooms available for Friday night.

I will be bringing my 1st gen timing tools again to try and get the guys I missed last year. If we park them all close together we should be able to do 4 if we keep work at a steady pace. (and I don't have to help Stetson out with the governor plug again )

4 days and counting. See you all at the Baymont. I should be in by 11pm on Friday.

Paul

bighammer,

George had a mishap with some seats falling out of the back of his truck. I wouldn't go as far as to say it made a fool of him, but it was good for a quick laugh.

 

[TStetson]

See george that's what you get for trying to burn the tires. You were being punished. Sorry to here that you won't be able to make it. Now my dad has no recliner in the parking lot.

This really sucks :{ - I'm not going to be able to be there this weekend and will have to miss the Bowling Green race too. I woke up monday night at 2:00 am in the most excruciating pain I've ever felt in my entire life. Had my wife drive me into the ER where they filled me full of pain killers to get me through until I could see my orthopedic surgeon (2 vicodin, 2 motrin, 2 shots of morphene, and 2 valum). I saw the surgeon today and I have another bone spur and possibly a bone infection. Best case they are cutting into me some time next week to get the bone spur. Most likely though I'm going to have to endure 2-3 surgeries plus 4-6 weeks of IV antibiotics . I hope you guys have fun and I'll be wishing I was there.



-Steve

 

[kaptn]

Sorry to hear that Steve. I was looking forward to seeing you again. I know a few places in Detroit I was going to show you. I will add you to our family prayer list. Take care Kirk.

 

[Cooker]

Wow Steve, that sucks! Hope all goes will with the surgery.
