Re: The draw... (1bad69)
No
My engine will be a completely different beast by the end of the summer.
No point in tuning one setup to perfection only to change it less then one month down the road.
I also like doing my own tuning, as soon as I do my spring Dyno (to determine how well I tuned my car since the last Dyno) the setup will be changing to a Holley carb and they are not as difficult to tune as a Q-Jet.
Thanks for considering me though :)

Re: The draw... (75 Stingray!)
The draw sounds good, I'll go along with whatever you guys want.
As another note, Mike has been working hard on keeping this going - ie. phoning Lars, trying to arrange a more localized site than coming way up to Orangeville so to me it only makes sence as a thank-you to ensure that his vette is the first to be tuned. Maybe Chris or I could video Lars so we could help Mike (Rag75) with his new engine setup when the time comes.
If the rest of you disagree with this I will step aside for Mike as my thank-you to him as long as I can still attend, watch and learn.

Re: The draw... (1bad69)
from the other post....
if we vote to do a draw for the cars, then a by will be given to Stewart as he started this idea and a by to whoever comes up with the location for the day...if there are multiple guys that can host the saturday tuning event, the guys that are having their cars tuned will decide on the best location...
and a by to 75Rag for the place to stay...this leaves 3 open spots
OK..so we have the list...stewart, rag, me, gdh, PJsam and motorhead...
please confirm yes you can make the June 19 date and that the cost is good with you all...around 100$...

Re: The draw... (PyjamaSam)
I am hoping that Lars can tune the Edlel so that my lost hp/tq from swapping from the Holley comes back. I still much prefer the Edel to the Holley - no fear of leaks, just lost all the top end performance.
