If its at the end of Aug/early Sept i'll be out----holidays start,i have to take the dog to 1 hour nothwest of Peace River area so my folk can babysit him and then hop a plane in Fort ST John to Vancouver to hook up with the wife/family---me/mrs/brolaw are on a Alaskan cruise for a week---then make the drive back to get the mutt and spend a week hanging out with my folks quading/cutting wood/sighting in the rifles---"drinking beeeeer" etc.Sorry folk---- would of loved to make this one.DW

 

I dont really have much planned for august so whatever works for ya'll I'm sure I will probably be there. Might not have much changed on the truck by then but only time will tell that for sure...

 

End of August I am out also. After blackout we are up to GP for a week and race there. Then we are off to southern BC for a week to do some visiting/relaxation.

 

Would you guys like to go earlier in August? I don't have to much on the go that month. That might help with some dyno tuning prior to the blackout event.

 

pretty much anytime in august works for me too. i have no blocks of dates that are busy yet, but there will for sure be a day or two here and there.

as tate said, the earlier we know, the earlier we can alter the work schedule for it!

 

I would be in for earlier, but I doubt the truck will be done much before blackout to be honest... I think that the only tuning I will get is going to be on the road outside of my house,, lol

 

Work is gonna be tight for me to even make it up to Kev's, let alone to get anything done to my truck for the dyno. My three week job might turn into a six wek job, which runs right into the next one, which gives me zero time for anything.

 

ooo,, that would seriously suck for me

 

well if worse comes to worse a midnight or 5am swap at black out. Lots of but shouldn't be an issue. A little tuning on some back roads, good to go.

 

I'm gonna try my damnedest to make it there just after the long weekend. Hopefully they will give me time off, or a layoff. This is the one company that I won't consider quitting with, which says a lot about the company.

 

Tate you have to do what is right for you. We will get it figured out somehow..

 

Kev, so what do you need to get the truck done? Installing the turbo is pretty easy stuff. It will just bolt in. You really don't need an exhaust Thats been done by Fred. The IC tubing isn't to tuff either.

 

Yeah what is left Kevin?

 

well basically,, here it is in a nutshell. Some of it is just not going to get done, but some has too.

Head on
IC mounted
Turbo mounted
Exhaust figured out
Nitrous reworked for progressive controller and bigger lines and solenoids
traction bars put on
battery cables ran to box
fuel cell to mount, and plumb
fass to be moved
front springs to be pulled and cut
seats mounted
holes repaired in cab where the roll cage is.
finsh pulling off the ac pump
figure out a new belt once head and cp3's are on
and a few other things that i am probably forgeting

 

Oh....is that all....








Some of that should go pretty quick. But it is a chore to do it after you worked a 10+ hours day...
