If I wasn't gonna be busy, I'd come. Will be in the field.

I was in Urbandale, for a while, when I was going to DMACC. I'm in TX right at the moment, seeing my little brother. Will be home next week, sometime.

Guys, we are looking at sometime after april 16, cause that will be after matts{ALPHACOWBOY} wedding, he is all nervous and needs to spend his time preping for the wedding, so that gives you a little more info!, bringing your own tools would be fine, he said he has got room for some 20 or so trucks out in the parking lot, he might have to move some stuff around though, but should be alright! Iron horse said that anybody that needs to have valves lashed, speak up, timing he has not tackled on the 5.9s yet, but has done bigger engines and is gonna use mine as a guniea pig! later

If I don't have to work, I'm there. If you get a chance, directions and location would be cool. If you got a guy that's just dying to run valves, he could run mine. Only 20k on the truck though.

Ya I remember, go ahead and send me directions. Maybe I will just stay at my folks house in ALbert Lea Saturday night. Not for sure though I can go but will try, not much else going on this week end. I will know today if I can make it for sure. Later Jim.

Well then you would remember Chilly Dog's truck, the green 12 V with the stacks? We just built a set of twins for him, what a ride. He gets it back today, I can't wait till he gets to take it for a spin.
