Your hotel is a 5 minute walk from my work which is located in that 21-story blue glass building south of the hotel. If you're checking this site remotely give me a shout at 714-287-1247 (work #). I think I saw a few conventionaires on my way home from work this evening!

Are all the lobes the right shape on the cam? :)

Speaking of sales.... Today's LA Times business section carried an article outlining how GM's and Ford's sales took another hit last month, mainly due to reduced demand for SUVs & trucks (it's about freakin' time, there are too many in the hands of stupid people!) and the increasing popularity...

A couple more notes, since I fell asleep last night before I could finish: as far as your welded cat/exhaust system dilemma goes, Summit sells a nice Hooker system for $279 which has the proper flange welded on and includes a 2.5" test pipe with a slipjoint & flange to mate everything up. In...

Chalk it up to too much Nyquil, but I re-read this entire thread twice and nowhere did I see about the O2 sensor having been looked at.

Good evening from a fellow TR owner in Yorba Linda-- This is a longshot, but do you have the original wheels? You might get some more interest if you do. I've probably had too much Franzia "wine in a box", but I'm sitting here trying not to wonder what the high 10-second combo out of my GN...

Kevin, Speaking of getting out, if the car sits most of the time March 25th is a good time to take it out. There are over 90 cars signed up for the deal as of today, and it looks like Ray will be joining the fray. I thought you'd indicated you were going, but I don't see you listed at...

gofst, Thanks for the detailed explanation! My car passed T.O. okay the last time out so I guess I'll have to rub my lucky rabbit's foot again...

I have to ask-- who decided to tag the VIN 7 cars as being "Test Only"on an annual basis?? I recently received my tag renewal notice and there it is again! Grrrrrr....

Space is filling up fast.... As of 02/06/05 at 11AM there are 76 cars signed up; in addition to the three of us Tim Lee signed on to bring his TR-powered Skylark. Kevin, where are you....

Kevin, You'd better hurry and sign up; as of 02/05/2005 there were 62 cars signed up, and that's before Neal, Jeff Rand, and myself put in our $$$ today. Check out the list at: http://www.alternativemotoring.com/_wsn/page3.html Morgan

I run 15 lbs on 91 Chevron using an 18* timing chip...when I'm running 91 octane. ;)

Brent, I have an '83 Malbu wagon with a 350 SBC & 7.5" rear end, and my GN has its original 8.5". If you send me a pic of what's under your car I can compare and tell you. One thing's for sure: the 7.5" looks a bit less "beefy". EDIT: Never mind, I pulled your email from your profile...

Thanks for the update and getting the movie, Sean! March 25th might be the wife's opportunity to get some seat time. Maybe we can hook up this weekend or next.... Morgan

I took the Metrolink train this morning into downtown LA from the Orange County side (that's south of LA; the derailment took place north of LA) and we were about 10 minutes from Union Station when I an email from my wife beeped in on my Blackberry...she wrote to tell me she'd just learned that...
