So, did you do the install Lance?

No...I was just yanking Buck's chain  >w  that his price should be "installed".

I have done the Gen 2 pans, but have never done the Gen 3 swing arm.  Is there a lot involved with it?
I can't imagine it being too terribly difficult.   I get the feeling that Buck is going to volunteer me for the job since he doesn't want to get his white t-shirt dirty.

Installation is real straight forward.  You will need a torque wrench and some deep sockets along with a few other regular tools.  You will also want to apply some RTV to the corners of the oil pan gasket which is normally re-useable.

Add a new oil filter and some fresh oil and you're done!

Sounds very much like the gen 2 pan install.

So easy even Buck can do it !   >l

Dan,
I just got my car back from TJ.  He installed my new clear bra on the front, sides and rear I am hoping it will last a long time.  I will put it to the test soon at Fontana.  <m 
Thank you,
Matthew

I decided to do the West Coast Customs tour so you can scratch me off the list for this event.

Also, because I'm running Big Willow on the 9th.

Dan,

Sorry I can't make this one either. NASA is running the same weekend at WSIR. I'm leading in points for both TT3 and ST3, and planning on going to Nationals this year. So I have to stay focused there for now. Hopefully there will be some non-overlapping events soon.

Signed up to run on Sunday, have a conflict Saturday afternoon. Maybe I'll sign up for West Coast Customs and get the best of both worlds!

Saturday is now sold out, Jonathan and I got in by agreeing to instruct. Sunday is only avaialbe for the high intermediate and red groups.  If you're on the fence, sign up for Sunday now or your out.  Mike

Hey Mike. I just signed up per Aaron's email.  I'll turn up the wick on the flames for your camera this time.  Haven't run ACS is about 7 years, so I will be on a learning curve this time.  What time is everyone showing up to the track? Save me a spot in the pits Mike as I will be driving down early that morning.

Jonathan, I'm leaving South OC around 5:30 am, should be at the track by 7.  Dan probably has a garage so I'll park near his rig and save you a space.  Mike
