Northeast PA TDR Chapter (unofficial)

[DTroy]

It's well after 1 a. m. and I'm still working on the clutch. Ran into a problem or two. But I said I would be at Kaufman's...



So it looks like it'll be an all-nighter.

If I look tired today, pretend not to notice.

 

[ttbird]

You can do it!!!, You can do it!!!, You can do it!!!!!!!!!

 

[DTroy]

ttbird... ... ... :-laf



I was saying "I think I can, I think I can".



A 24 hour marathon from Friday at 11 am to Saturday at 11 am and I was finished. After a few bumps in the road, all ended up well.



The SBC double disc is awesome. No drivetrain slop, crisp engagement, holds like it was welded together...

I didn't even have time to break it in today. I drove it straight to the dyno.

 

[DTroy]

It was nice to see some familiar faces at Kauffman's



Master 1578, Swexlin... I must have gotten there too late to catch up with you guys. I was working on the truck for the first half of the day. I didn't get there until the afternoon.



NBazil, did you make it there ??





----------------------------------



And in case everyone hasn't heard, Hammer came out of the booth near the end of the day and said that the initial setup on the dyno was wrong. So if you dyno'd, multiply your number by 1. 03

Swexlin... I must have gotten there too late to catch up with you guys. I was working on the truck for the first half of the day

Uh. . no... . I was the one who handed you the oil filter you won.



Remember?

 

[DTroy]

Uhhhhh..... :-laf



By that point I was up for about 32 hours. I had the names mixed up. Oooops.



-------------------------------------



On that note, thanks for the filter. I was extra happy because I was ogling them about ten minutes before that. I asked Hammer why the diesel filters were in a gasser shop. He mentioned something about a raffle. And then.....



Was Wexman there ? ( at least I have his name right )



------------------------



Swexlin, that reminds me. . my birthname is Donald. Middle name Anthony.

You guys can call me Tony. My father goes by Don. It helps with the confusion.

 

[swexlin]

Was Wexman there ? ( at least I have his name right

Uh... see above. That would be me!! :-laf



I am Wexman over on DTR, Swexlin here.

 

[DTroy]

You're killing me ! :-laf



Okay. Now I have it. Genros is the guy with the 3rd gen.



He was at the Meet-and-Greet with his brother.



Did I at least get that one right ????

 

[swexlin]

Yes. Although, I have a third-gen as well - white dually.

 

[DTroy]

Ah, ok. The "Drippy Dually". :-laf



Did you get the leak fixed ?

 

[swexlin]

Yep, CP3 replaced last winter.
