    Did the Frenchtown breakfast run ( 250 round trip! )

    Had a great breakfast with like minded acquaintances and a nice back road run to home with the "new" car

    Ordered a Wevo shift coupler per Gyts suggestion

    Thanks Reza for the nudge

    "Luke and Reza...Can't talk about the O thing...respecting rules 1 and 2"
    Now there's a man who understands how to follow the only 2 OG rules

    "Lee, how do I get an O gruppe sticker?"
    Since YOU are an "O"riginal low numbered founding member, chances are there are still a few hiding in one of your cars. I know some where dropped into "Greens" door pocket a few years back....just look..

    how do I know what my number is? This is very complicated for something with only 2 rules, how about we simplify it a bit, add some more rules....or drop down to 1.

    OG Rule 1 and 2 that Lee references are one of the same and are pretty simple to follow....see Tyler Durden or JensVB for clarification...

    While I keep looking around for a long-hood project that I can afford yet is within my abilities, I console myself by driving my 3.2.

    Ron,

    The 3.0 cars respond to improving air in and out, best thing is to backdate the heat exchangers and eliminate the cross over pipe and also lose some weight.

    3.2's do well with exhaust, air mass meter and a chip

    Any impact bumper car is very happy to lose the heavy front and rear bumpers....and if you have power seats, ditch them for something lighter....without giving up any creature comforts, it's pretty easy to lose 200 lbs, and you will notice the difference immediately.
