WCBF10 Mods/Repair List

I'd like to lay down some ground rules before we begin. I invite others to chime in with their thoughts and any additional suggestions.
We have to keep in mind that most members attend this once a year Meet to enjoy the camraderie of fellow members and to experience other Bonne's with all five senses. It's a tight schedule over the week but it offers time to do a 'little' and I stress "A LITTLE" bit of modding and unique specialized repairs (with the experts).
I don't want anyone missing out on what I believe are critically memorable events, like the coast cruise, because they are playing host or because they've been there before.
The list that will be formulated will be flexible enough to accommodate minor emergencies but I think emergencies should be limited in complexity. Sometimes you have to pay to play you know. (I hope that doesn't come back and bite me)
AGENDA
Sun. July 18 - Early arrivals and mods at Bill's
Mon. July 19 - Mods at Bill's.
Tues. July 20 - Tuning and Mods
Wed. July 21 - Cruise to the Coast. Leave at 10:am and return by 4:pm
Thursday July 22 - Testing and tuning
Friday and Saturday are non-working days. Sunday is reserved for emergency get me home repairs.

Get your paws off my tool!

Paul, I hope that is not you saying that......................I am not your tool! However, if Dex said that he would have said "Get your HANDS off my tool!"

If I come, I would love a ZM P&P M90, but that's a lot of work. I'll probably stick to helping.

You said it Matt!
I was referring to where Dex had his front paws!
Ya Ed, P&P takes too much time but if you brought a spare unit to be done, we could mail it back to you after the Meet. You just take your chances on a rushed job.
Use the KISS rule. Keep is Simple Stupid.
Pulley changes, stat changes, rocker changes, fan over-rides, brakes, motor mounts, reclining seat repairs, suspension,.......things like that.
You know. Things you can do with a few pints in one hand and a camera in the other.

The last couple of Fests I have lusted over Thomas' tuning abilities but he had been busy and I'm not one to force the issue.
I REALLY NEED to get some Bullet tuning done if possible to solve the part throttle KR issue.
I need help for Tues/Wed if possible. I am illiterate when it comes to using programmers.
The two tuners I purchased in the past were obsolete the moment I received them.

That would be fantastic, Thomas!
You have to promise not to blow it up, eh.

We want to do more driving the next couple years with this car so need it to last.
I just want to make sure the fuel trims and accel rates are tuned to more closely match the GenV. The Intense burn adjusted for the 42# injectors but does not take into account the GenV or my straight short shot CAI. My wideband tells me I'm running normal at WOT but that's not were I get the KR. We've discussed the issue before so I think you know what to do.

Hey Bill, can you let me know if Quaak can do that paintless dent repair on my right rear door panel?
Tuesday would be good. We should be in town Monday night.

To add to the list, I would like to pull my tails to polish them up and replace the broken clips on the center piece. If bill is up to it, I would like to weld up my exhaust.

No reply yet on this one.
Can it happen Bill?
After my trip to California I can't believe how dirty the oil got after less than 2000 miles.
It must be waaaay rich.

I have a set of LS6 valve springs and headers that I would like to install on my Z28. It looks like I wont have time to install them before WCBF. I would at least like to get the valve springs done since I am getting valve float at 5500 rpm. Are you guys ok with me doing these mods at the meet?
