I wish it was that simple but you'd be up against my wife, sis-in-law and my brother. My bro. is 6'6" so he'd see you coming...LOL

Well charlie you take the 6'6" Brother he might have a couple of inches on you but you can take him and I will take the sister in law. Now all we need is someone to hold back your wife and if she is like my wife that will be a tall task.

I really wanted a Red, White, and Blue pic.

Damn Charlie, that's awful nice of you to smoke a ham for the guys!

GRRRR8
08-24-2008, 04:34 PM
The only thing I smoke is tires Tom! I wont have all my cam and valves, plus the heads are going to the machine shop to drop them to 68cc, so I have to wait a bit on the tear down. I guess mid Sept. I should be starting.

08-24-2008, 05:30 PM
Damn!!!

Getting serious now huh Charlie ???

Ok Sunday noon at Otto's sounds good to me.

GRRRR8
08-24-2008, 05:34 PM
It just came down to the heads have to come off regardless, and I really want a 6.0 version of the 6.2 Hot cam engine , so I have to make them 68cc. This car should FLY!

bah... compression is for loosers... just run more timing... it will be fine....

or not.

So what is up with this get together? Might head down to H town to check out the car deals...

GRRRR8
08-25-2008, 04:20 AM
I guess if the GM engineers saw fit to make the heads 68cc, neither one of us can question that. We are just all gonna hang out on Sunday. If you are up to the drive, come on!

Sorry guys it looks like I will not be able to make it up to Houston this weekend. Took the car back to the shop for an oil leak. They were going to have my car ready today but it looks like i am not going to get it back untill next week.

08-29-2008, 12:25 PM
I know it. We will Rusty, we will. Is it the rear main seal?

Got 8?
08-29-2008, 01:03 PM
Is it the rear main seal?

Yeah that's what I'm wondering too...

TexasG8
08-29-2008, 01:13 PM
That is what they are telling me. But the first time they told me it was the oil leveling sensor that was leaking so they replaced that and it still leaks.

don't know if I'm going to make it either I'm trying to make it in from marble falls.

Keyswitch went out on the bike and nobody has a switch in stock had to hotwire it to try to make it in from the state park now trying to make it back home...

Got 8?
08-31-2008, 07:29 AM
Well guys and gals I'm not going to make it to Otto's...we got in late last night after a 6 hour ride back to the house from Marble Falls. Had the bike torn apart up on a hill near Inks Lake State Park trying to diagnose a problem and narrowed it down to the key switch. Got on the iphone (glad I got this thing) and looked around for local dealers, called around to the two closest dealers and got no help from them even stating that I was 300 miles away from home and stuck out on Park Rd 4. Then called back home to my local dealer and although I didn't buy my bike from them, he walked me through how to hot wire it to get back home. I'm definately buying my next bike there!!! After a few stops for gas and food we made it back home safe and sound.

Hrmm maybe I should look into installing OnStar on the bike...LOL

We'll try to see yall at the next one...Zed
