Not sure how the car will do. I've been working out a few kinks, but she'll be there.

Do we pay when we arive?

Yes. You'll just pay Ed York the $50. He said he'd take credit cards too.

I'm giving slick230 and bantonid until 5:00 pm today to confirm they will attend. If I don't hear back from them, the spots will be offered to orb0554 and Uber-Goober in that order.

slick230 just confirmed ... still waiting on bantonid.

Very excited for this event. Gotta pick up a check valve tomorrow for the crank case, and I'm good to go.

bantonid never confirmed, so his spot is now on the block to orb0554.

Are we going to caravan up or just meet there?

I had some issues getting on the road this morning but we are on our way! I should make it in the nick of time for the M6's run, if not please shuffle the order and try to leave me a spot.

Just got back. Ed from York Auto is great! He's great to talk to, and gave some great advice using the dyno nubers to improve my high mileage car.

What did you end up putting down? I unfortunately didn't get to see you run.

254 hp with 156,000 miles on the clock. Going to rebuild the engine over the winter and spring. Throw in a couple extra things, and see what happens.

As you may have noticed the engine has a few issues with a coolant leak ( maybe cracked water jacket in the head ), and blow by probably from worn rings.

Ed gave some insight to the rebuild, and offered some machine shop contacts he uses.
