Steve, I thought you'd done some stuff to your car since summer.

Wheels are coming in a couple days... BIG refund check!

Wes I dont need a puller since I have stage 2, just teh bit to get the bolts out.

As to Karla's pulley dont I need to get a new snout if I go smaller than a 2.8? Im gonna have the 60#s in anyways so im not to worried about that part lol. Still have to order them though, thats happening today . I have to work on saturday til 11pm though which is pretty shitty, but I have the rest of the night to do whatever.

Ahh hell I just remembered that I didnt get my A/F senser installed yet guess no tune... which means no 60's. I should probably get on that.

Just let us know exactly when and what part of the burgh you're going to be in. We have agents all over the operational area and can suit up at a moments' notice.

Depending on when you come down will depend on who and how many of us can help. Between racing, cruises, mod nights, and just grabbing food/beer/strippers ( Well... not GRAB them.... ) we're always going to be doing something.

What is bringing you to the burgh?? Job? School? Change of scenery?

brk...the puller stays at daves...it is now customary that the owner of the car does the pulley swap...consider it a right of passage

jester...we also have a snout machining tool at daves...donated by nate...if u have gm stage 2 hub u can go to a 2.78 from CA iirc without any problems

Hedless horseman...where in MI are you...I go to GMI/Kettering in Flint...I'm heading back up in 2 weeks

Dan

I'll take my right of passage by swapping my own pulley with some supervision. I'll just keep myself updated on this thread with any mod nights in the near future or get in touch with Dave if I start itching to get the pulley on once I get the S1 installed. I'll do the injectors myself and then drive easily to a dealer for the flash. Has anyone gone to the dealer for just the flash? If so, which dealer, how much, etc.?

That's generally not a problem. There are only about 6 LSJ people in or very close to the actual city of Pittsburgh. Me (east side), Wes (west side), Brian (brk - not sure what part of the Burgh you're in), Jon (Redline owner, same difference - Mt. Washington, actually IN the city), Al, and Dan (Jester) both also western area. Steve's not too much farther out in White Oak, and Rick is about a half hour north toward Beaver. Everyone else is out toward Greensburgh, about a half hour east of Pgh.

What part of the city are you moving to and why? And what type of jobs are you looking for. Where I work they're always hiring for different stuff, if you're looking for something specific, PM me I'll see what all they're looking for here.

It was. My compression ratio is still the same mostly. I was kinda hoping they would so I could get a free boost in compression but oh well. Apparently I never had a blown headgasket so they didn't really need to take a lot off. Just enough to get some marks off from the stock headgasket.

Well...nobody told me there was a scheduled time for the tint so I'm not doing it. The whole thing just seems sketchy to me. Way too many tint jobs for one day. I'm gonna go somewhere that takes their time and does it right. I'm not saying the dude doesn't do a good job. But, I know some top of the line places, and I'll feel a lot more comfortable going there.
