I've got pillowball bushings, plugs, PFC(has to wait till a tune), need more ground wires, clean original ground points, new door handle "cup", fix the idle, reposition the IC, and clean the inside.
I've got a handy little pump that I used to fill my diff and tranny.

LOL, I thought about gettin' that, but decided on on Royal Purple, since I could get it locally. I can't imagine a huge diff between them.
And the RP still got the 2nd gear notchiness out.

This is the group I usually hang with. but I wont be attending this event.

Bert aka GTUser and Bobby mrthundercleese Are the onlt two so far.

Bert holds the Raliegh group together ( like calvin does the hr club) it would be nice if some one could meet up with them.

I know you guys see enough jets everyday ( I did when I lived there).

Just giving you a heads up

Calvin Give me an adress so I can send $ for my shirt.
