Hey guys, just seeing a couple more dowel pins run out, I am wondering if anyone in the TC area of MN has the tools to do it, and maybe some time to help? If someone does, maybe we could get a few guys together, and kill a few at one time. As long as I'm in there, I would like to advance my timing a bit. If anyone is interested, I should be able to get access to a heated shop with lots of area. (I suppose now that I mentioned that, I am posting in the wrong forum ) Anyone interested? I can always slip you a few greenbacks for your time
Thanks,
Matt Griffith

Crimedog, Just today I had breakfast with amartinson and we were talking about trying to get a group together in Mn. Possibly around the Hinkley area but it wouldn't be until summer. Waddya think? If there was a way to do it I could help you. Problem is, I'm about 150 miles north of you. I hope that someone in the twin cities area could give you some assistance.

Tom, I am on X-mas break from school right now until next weekend. If I can't find someone down here, we actually have a cabin up by Two Harbors, and I wouldn't mind the drive up there, if you have tools and time to help. Thanks for your concern.

If you come up this way I would be glad to help you. The only problem is that I don't have a garage to work in. If you go to Two Harbors you drive within 1 mile of my house. Were you thinking of doing a jig fix or a tab fix? I personally think that the tab fix is better. Try giving amartinson a PM since he lives down in your area. He might be able to come up with an idea to help too.

I drive past Hinkley on my way to my cabin all the time.

If your looking to get a group together, you may want to place a post in the Natl. and Regional Chapters / Special Events forum.

Prior to advancing the timing you might read this tech article: http://www.dieselinjection.net/frames.html The author/shop owner advises retarding the timing when adding HP to a Cummins.
