hahah ... the 80's trans am with the spoked rims that always makes an appearance.

tejohnson · 04-02-2006, 05:59 PM

I think I would be lucky to even have it running by that weekend... Should get the tranny back this week... Perhaps the engine (un-assembled) too.

, the 20" gold dayton 200 spokes up front with 15" stock tires and slicks inthe rear for running high 14s

Todd, get that thing togethor man, I wanna see it run, or at least hear of you having a new PB.

Schweppe23 · 04-02-2006, 06:51 PM

Todd by some chance, if we get our cars back together in time for this shindig, maybe you can come through my way, and we can do a lil dyno session. My friends shop just put one in and its only 15min from my house. I'll be needing your mad tuning skills.

iceman · 04-02-2006, 06:53 PM

I'll be in Youngstown by the 20th.. after that it's the mad dash bolting & wiring

tejohnson · 04-02-2006, 06:55 PM

... I like the mid-way point better... I'm thinkin I'll prolly be just getting it running the weekend of MGM. We'll see...

Schweppe23 · 04-02-2006, 07:09 PM

Gotcha, i don't know how much outa the way i am for you on the way to Stanton?

AaronGTR · 04-02-2006, 08:32 PM

I'm just gonna be happy to have my car there at all this time, even if it's not ready for any runs on the strip. If I'm lucky I may even have my hood fixed and painted by then.

xonelith · 04-02-2006, 09:44 PM

I just hope I make it without any issues

Lookin' forward to seeing everyones car's that I hear so much about!

whats it doing?
My trans isn't liking the 1-2 shift anymore, and I have the line pressure set to its fastest shift speed (too much line pressure it made it shift worse) and once in a while its fine and once in a while it says stfu, and quit flooring it.

Read through this

New PCV valve, sea foamed and accel coil packs-now have problems

My 1-2 shift is seeming to be worse also, im thinkin about picking up Milzy's new tranny mount, maybe that will help a little. I think i can still crack out a few 14.9's though, if i can fix this damn problem first.

Damn does this sound tempting.

Matt if you can go, THEN GO!!!!
MGM is some of the best times I have had... Might be because I seem to know and hang out with more GP people then GA but in the end it's a great great time and you will see some VERY FAST cars!!! I really wish we could make it but I am seriously doubting it. MGM and IDD are out this spring... looks like the only GP event we are making this spring/summer is GPG in June!

im in greece/italy that day... won't work for me

tejohnson · 04-05-2006, 11:35 AM

As much as you may not like to hear it, a bad 1-2 shift (especially it a pre-03) will not simply be fixed by a mount.

Woody87 · 04-05-2006, 12:01 PM

still contemplating whether I should make an appearance. with all you heavily modded guys showing up, I doubt I'll be making too many passes.
