Steve's hands on Tech day + Night drive 21 June
Posted: Sun 15 Jun, 2008 8:43 pm
As discussed at the meeting, I'm having a hands on Tech day/night drive next Saturday.
The tech day:
Kicking off at 0900am:
We'll be swapping engines/gearboxes on a 1.3 WT hardtop I have at home. It currently has a seized 1.6 in it and a 1.3 gearbox that's had 1.6 mounts on it.
We have a fresh short 1.3 to go in, a 1.3 gearbox connected to a tired 1.3, and a bunch of other 1.3 stuff to swap in. We'll be reusing the manifolds and accessories on the 1.6 that's currently in the car.
The task will be to get it running at a sensible time in the afternoon.
The night drive -
After dinner (excellent Pizza's from Cappa Rossi's in town)
We'll be hitting rocky, Glenburn and whatever else isn't shut in Toolangi. This won't be a long drive- just a couple of hours. Standard will be medium.
Bring any useful tools (but I don't need anything in particular) and some change for dinner/lunch.
Please update the following attendance list as we go:
Tech day attendees:
Chris H
Mitch
Ross
Matthew
Drive attendees:
Ross?
Matthew?
Numbers aren't important, but I'd like to know who to expect and by when.
Feel free to shoot with any questions, or call me on 0407 049 763.
Steve.
