-=-= NOVA April Mod Party =-=-
A few people have expressed interest in having a mod party... Who is interested? It would be nice to have as many "helping" hands as possible. Even those with no mods to do... 
Date: April 16th
Where: my house
time: 10am, First come first serve
Ground rules.
- For those needing help... Bring beer!
Food !!
- Corvettes only. Other cars need to pay the shop rate of $278.00 per hour.
- Finally, Please make sure you clean up!!
I have enough OFF street parking for everyone.
There are one or two people that need to pull the manifold. They might want to come by the night before and pull it off and put it back on so it can dry overnight or wait until late Saturday and finish the car Sunday morning…

What time are you planning on starting that morning?
Preferences on beer? I have 20-30 varieties in my basement fridge.

Robert - Do you happen to have an air compressor?
Or does anyone else?
One of the things I want to do when we put the new manifold on is to dump my heater hoses. (I already have the mainfold plug and expansion tank capoff)
I want to flush the heator core and then use air to blow out all the water.
No more heat!!!

Since you are a fellow Eagles fan, if you ever needed to do some work I could make my compressor, carport / house available to do the work. Gives me a chance to learn over a few beers, etc
