Hmmm I have one of the SpecII clutches here with a 2j flywheel. lmk

Thanks for the offer but I just got off the phone with Exedy and they have the plate I need in stock and are overnighting it to me. Looks like I will be hitting the dyno on wendsday and leaving straight from the dyno to Vegas!

Don - THANK YOU!

WOW! This is getting CRAZY!

The Smackdown payout is now $250 + $100 (John Reed) + $100 (Don Nakano) + an Escort 8500 Radar Detector from Royal Moore Toyota.

In addition... Don has also added to the 7M-GTE MkIII drag classes (AT and 5sp). Those are now up to $350 each.

Did you guys see that Ryan Woon is bringing his Supra out of retirement for this year's event? Not only will the MkIII drag racing be awesome... but the MkIV drag racing is going to be INSANE! This is on track to be the Best SILV event of all time. You don't want to be sitting on the sidelines reading the results online!

There's still time to book those last minute flights or quit your job so you can make the drive (if your manager won't let you off).

Keith, my pleasure.

SD2JZA70, sounds like great customer service on Exedy's part. Good to hear you'll be making it there.

I had my car all loaded on the trailer Saturday but blew a mufler bearing on the tow rig. The car then pissed its oil all out in simpathy of the trucks loss.

I just cant win I tell ya. :biglaugh:

No, I'm not going to Vegas.

Nothing wrong with my engine, just as little indentation in the head...lol I have most parts but no pump and I think that's what caused this lean spot so I am not chancing that again. Realistically, I could put the head back on now and run it but I don't do things like that. I am adding a new Weldon (2345A) pump which should be at my door this week, then doing a few other things I've been putting off.

Vegas:

I spoke with Dave, his clutch is done but he will be under vacuum most of the time and figures he may want to change the clutch when he gets to Vegas. Brad, is having high EGT temps and is watching them. I may meet up with them later as I have already been driving and am in Oregon with my wife.

PS: Have a great time people and make many vids and take gobs of pics! :)
