I'd love to help you, but wouldn't be able to get over there until after the 15th of July. How soon are you wanting to do this?

 

[manganos]

[dzldpatriot]

manganos,

Just logged on... . Yea, I'm leaving Saturday morning. Lots to do. How was your vacation? I'll send you an e-mail when I get home and we'll look at a calendar. I can come out to you any day as I'm on leave until I start my next job in September. Shouldn't take all that long if we're only doing your EGT. Take care, talk with you soon.

 

[manganos]

Sounds good!, Vacation was awesome. Wife and the two kids enjoyed the beach. I didn't air down enough and about buried the CTD. I managed to get out in 4lo and down to Oregon Inlet. Have fun on your vacation (Wait is it a vacation if you are not working m-f ? haha) Ok look forward to the email. I have everything but the tap. Let me know if you have one or if I need to head to NaPa. Thanks!

I know I am kinda late getting into this thread, but I am also a Virginia Beach resident. Unfortunately, I don't have any TDR badges.



I live in the Kempsville area. We should all get together sometime and give each other reasons to spend more money.



I"m always looking for somebody to back me up when I tell my wife I need to spend more money on my truck.

 

[manganos]

Come to Claremont tomorrow. I think it is off RT 10. For you either 64 W or go into Newport News and go over the James River Bridge RT 10 West. It is located at the the firehouse on RT 646 in Spring Grove. Hope to see ya there. http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/pics/showphoto.php/photo/3506/size/big/password//sort/1/cat/524

Hi. I live just up the road from Hampton in New Kent by the race Track. Travel down to Hampton all the time to go fishing. Would love to trade fishing trip for gauge installation. Thinking of putting a 2 gauge setup--





David.

 

[manganos]

Hey! I can help with the guage install. I'm not confident on the drilling and tapping for the EGT as I just had some help with that this weekend. Everything else is cake! Order your gauges from Genos Garage and you will get everything you need including the "boost bolt". www.genosgarage.com . . I went with the Diprocols and the match is decent. For the gauge pillar, I went with the factory colored 2 guage pod. Looks great! I work m-f and this Sat I will be going to Deleware to pick up my 30ft jayco travel trailer. Let me know what day you are looking at!

 

[dzldpatriot]

Manganos,

Do I read correctly that you've got your gauges in? If so, hope all worked well for you. My vacation... . if you could call it that was great, saw a couple of trucks... . no TDR stickers though. Anyway, let me know if you still need help. I'm out of town this weekend to central Pennsylvania.





DJOliver,

I saw your post... . you're near the dirt track on 17? We ought to get together next time you're heading to Hampton. Maybe meet at Bass Pro and see what you need for fishing Drop me a line when you have a chance.

 

[manganos]

Yeah dzldpatriot I did get the gaugse in with the help of some dieseltruckresource.com guys! We all met up in Claremont (Surry County) last weekend and had a blast! I really wanted to have my gauges in before I towed my 30ft + travel trailer. I towed it home from Deleware and never got above 1200 degrees wide open uphill on 95 S Maybe we can still get together soon. Thanks again for the help offer! Chris Mangano
