Sept 12 Dyno Day Ride Home . . .

Hey,

I am planning on being at the dyno event this Sunday, got a couple things to work out on the truck tomorrow though. If all goes well, I will be there Sunday and spinning the rollers.

Also on Sunday I am planning on meeting with Mel from Excell Transmission (built my auto this spring). We are gonna' go for a test drive, and then I will be leaving my truck there overnight so he can experience the stalling issue on cold startups so I can get that sorted out. It has to stay overnight though - so, can I hitch a ride back into Calgary from someone? I live in the NE. A ride to the NE would be great, but I could also go to the NW as plan B and have someone drive me home from there . . .

TIA,
Jason

I should be able to help you out if you want. Might get stuck in a 4th gen though. My twin build for my 2nd gen isn't going as fast as I would like.

Maybe you need to hire a professional pipe fitter, then your welder would get some time off.
