Just go to Advance and pick up a gallon of Castrol 20W50, and a Fram oil filter. Everyone has thier opinions on what brand of oil and filter to use, but these have served me well for years.

Tomorrow is about the only good time for me. I started that new job, and I have been in Morganton since wednesday. Got back about a few hours ago. Boss "likes my style" so they are sending me to Atlanta all next week. I leave tomorrow around 6:30.

I got breakfast with a chick and moving my car parts to a storage place and semi-cleaning the garage a bit. Anytime in the afternoon should be good as long as it is before 6. Just bring the oil/filter, I got places to store the used stuff.

Is that what you use Sam? I just went from 10W-30 to 10W-40.

As far as the weight of the oil, in the turbo FB I use 20w50. In the SA, I use 10w30. BTW, I finally updated my sig. I had to condence it quite a bit to comply with the new forum rules. I'm not sure if I'll keep the rotor and housing in the sig, but I'll live for now.

that is a very fun and tight road. It joins up with the BRP to make a nice loop.

Got the FC back together today with the pineapple 6 port sleeves. What a nice idle now Going for the test drive tomorrow.. We'll see how it responds to the change back from NO sleeves to these.

Priming the FD bumper and fenders in the next couple days as well., Then paint by the weekend hopefully. But I do not think it will make it to the Speedfest at Road Atlanta this weekend. But the FC may.

Anyone else intrested should tag along for Sat and Sun. Sturday at least as that is when all of the 4 rotors will be out on trackDrool!!

Stu.......You suckie suckie.......I would love to break the Buell out at Atlanta. Well, it's been a while since I checked the fuel mileage on the SA. But since I have been using it as my DD, I started keeping tabs on it. With my hard *** driving, I have been getting 19mpg on the back roads and town, and almost 24mpg on the interstate. I know it's a big whoop de do to most you guys, but I thought that was pretty good considering the way I drive it . So Zack. Did you get my message about the S4 turbo you have of Stu's? I would like to get that and swap it out before the next meet. If I don't have the dash swap and the turbo swap done by the next, I'm breaking bad with the SA!
