I still got 135 days left here, and they been sending people to sill and stewart left and right. I got a few people wanting me to try and get lewis so if we go to the sandbox we all know each other, but i do want germany or bragg so i'll find out in 20 days if i can pick where i want to go with ako.

 

Oh and aint 6-37 over by H-221, cause i hate that ******* hill over there.

 

I did that on my fb, I freaked but my dad taught me how to drill the old bolt out and tap new threads. Good times.

 

Any other takers on the Brits to battleships car show this coming saturday?
So far Bobby, Nic, and I.

 

Um, yeah, me and possibly a few more from Fayette'nam. I'm thinking about meeting you guys at the crossing of 40 and 95 like last year...well, what was SUPPOSED to happen last year, haha. I actually think it was cool as hell how it worked out last year, haha.

 

Just posted this on the 8 forum:
we can meet at the Cracker barrell in Smithfield and then hit 95to40. That way Nic wouldn't have to travell to far in the opposite direction first.
I didn't see a start time on their site, So I figure we can meet for breakfast at 8 and then drive down and be there around 11:00 or 11:30.
Or if we want to get their earlier we can meet for breakfast t 7:00?

 

That actually sounds like a plan...I was just gonna meet everyone at the 117/40 interchange. But Smithfield will work for me, too! Thanks Gary for thinking of us.

 

Hmmm, I still vote for 8, haha. I'll let my guys know and we'll see who's still in for it. Whoever isn't can just meet us down there or meet us at the intersection after breakfast. I will also probably be hanging out most of the day down there, if anyone else wants to do that. I mean like after the show like a couple of us did last time. I wonder if Jason is making it again?

 

I may be down for going to see the Brit's and the battleship. Hope to see you guys on Saturday in the am. Breakfast in Smithfield would be great since I can roll there in less than 5 minutes! I have to get my schedule clear for later on Saturday. What time does the show end?

 

just thought you guys might wanna see the motor. all she needs is an intake, and a few knick knacks, and she is ready. Other than that I am waiting to get back my PCM.

 

Welcome Rodney, Eric and the whole Fayetteville RX7 gang, glad to hear y'all are gonna make it. We'll meet and eat at the CB.

Rodney, If you want to meet us up at the 70E & 70 Business split you can lead us down to the CB since this is your neck of the woods. I finally found the CB last time only because a local LEO gave me directions from somewhere in Smithfield.

The guys leaving from Raleigh area can agree to meet some where such as the Jones Sausage entrance to I-40 or the Garner-Smithfield-Clayton exit from I-40 to Hwy 70S, there is some type of Shopping Center off to the right, or a spot further South along 70. We can then drive down to Smithfield and hook up with Rodney. At least this time it'll be daylight by the time we get to Smithfield.

We got Booby, Gary, and me coming from Raleigh, anyone else?

 

You're gonna have to explain to me what that is... motor for what? Damn thing is sideways mounted... I'll never figure it out! You got instructions or a diagram?


Josh!!!! You know when you show up finally all you're gonna do is give rides all night to people!! HAH!!! Looking forward to seeing it, the car and you again soon.

 

Sorry Greg this is the way it should look and a diagram explaining the basics of the LS1

 

DOH!

 

Greg,
There is another LS-1 FD in the making in the near future!

 

There may be an LS1 FC sometime this millenium when my bank account grows a little fatter.

 

Guys I blew my transmission in my GTU. Anybody got an s4 n/a tranny in confirmed good condition? I will even take an s5 unit if it's in really good shape (under 100k) and just do the swap.

 

Ray, Alex (13b4me) had one for sale not to long ago.

 

Ray, Im pretty sure we have one at the shop. Came out of a parts car that we were driving around a few months ago. Send me a PM. Carl

 

Couple of questions Josh...where is the rotary? It's missing. Second, where did the Corvette covers come from, I thought it was from a WS6 TA? lol Third, where is the FREAKIN ROTARY?!

 

Carl, it's gonna take me a while to get use to seeing that 3rd gen as your avatar man but it looks good.

 

that thiang gat a hemi? should a put one of them thare hemis in it.

 

Thanks Greg, it will be a slick car when Im finished with it. Hope to have it up and running by the end of this year. It's sure a big wakeup call when I've been looking for stock parts in the 3rd gen section and parts are about 3 times as much as the same 1st gen part would be! I went in knowing that parts would be expensive but I didn't know how expensive!!!

 

you guys are making me want to get a 3rd gen... anyone need a vintage guitar/amp?

 

Eric they cover a lot of ugly. originally I was going to fill them in, but figured what the hell.

oh and the rotary is sitting in the garage waiting for you. lol.
