Awesome Daniel!
IAN - I would need 3 straight -6 to -6, or -6 to -6 straight cut with o-ring. For the Aeromotive FPR. But I ordered them from Summit a few days ago (ordered from JRP originally, back in February......they keep giving me the "next week", "next week" call back in a week") and they shipped yesterday from summit so tomorrow they should be here. If they're not here by the end of the week I'm goign to **** in an envelope and mail it to them
Then I'll start hunting for others locally lol
I'm not sure on what time everyone's leaving either. I believe Ian is stopping in at my shop around noonish then we're heading London way. But yeah, lots of time that day so whenever we leave I'm cool.
I think we should start a thread the week before with real specifics, this one's getting tough to read through unless you were part of it

NOthing like what is going into my FPR. Just the hose ends.
Ya summit was like that for me. Said next day shipping and then wham. 1.5months later..............
Yah same here, first time my 7 will be out when there is still snow. I think were going to see some snow on the way down to. Snow and Low Profile tires don't mix.. LOL
I've got me and my wife and some friends that will be following us in their MazdaSpeed 3. Anyone for leaving after work on Thursday? Hit a cheap hotel in Cleveland Thursday night and leave early Friday?

I may have them, we have a box of AN fittings from Magnafuel sitting upstairs. Have any pics of exactly what you need, would make it easier for me to look them up.
I think the plan at this point is, were all meeting in Windsor at 8pm Thursday, and starting to drive down, just stopping when we get tired. Where are you in Michigan? you could probably meet up with us on the way.
SHHHHH, she can hear you

R.P.M. - I'd be in need of 3 of either type of those fittings.

They look like that, OR, like that but with one end missing the 37* flare, and just having an o-ring against the bulkhead portion.
But honestly, if they don't show up today, I'm just putting the old regulator on so I can start the engine this weekend. So don't sweat it yet
THanks though.

I-275 ? you near Ann Arbor, I'm there every other weekend, g/f going to U of M. I saw a Black FD last summer in Arbor, just curious if you know them.
the only area in Novi i've been to is Twelve Oaks, very nice mall. hope to meet you on the trip down to DGRR, the caravan is going to be fun, i think we got 12 cars from Ontario going down so far.
Might as well make a list... This is what I could make out from the thread. Add yourself if I missed you ^_^

The route we're going won't be taking us anywhere near Cleveland. It would be pretty out of the way. I-75 straight down to Knoxville, then down US-129. Absolutly no reason we wouldn't want you along with us though. Leave your cell number here if you've got one and someone will give you a call when we're out of customs. We could probably meet you at one of the truck stops in between Detroit and the Ohio state line.
On a side note I'm going to be picking up a couple two-way radios soon. They are about $30US at the Pilot truck stops and I have about $20 in points on my points card.
