Greater MN Get Together!!

Post by 00Beast »

Well, first off I'd like to thank Marty for kind of organizing the event, and for providing some of the drawing prizes. That Turbo 108 octane boost will go great in something I feel like blowing up, lol.

We had a great turnout, with a large variety of cars and people. Had some great convo's and shared some cool stories. Can't wait till the next meet. :wink:

I had a lot of fun yesterday, my first BC meet ever! I'm just glad all you Pontiac owners didn't mame my Ford. I half expected to see it in the river when I got back from lunch.

It was cool seeing some new faces this year.

I really like the Buick LeSabre.. I've never seen one fixed up before..

Where was this meet at? I should have brought my 89 LOL

How exactly is that intercooler working on a roots style intake manifold supercharger??

It's basically a finned liquid filled plate (like a radiator) between the s/c and lower intake mani., and has fluid fed through it with a pump to a front heat exchanger.

The meet was in St. Cloud not far off of HWY 10.

And yes, Lamps GSX has a LOT of time/money into it.
