Wrenching at Nats?

[cliffey83]

Is anyone up for doing some wrenching at Nats? I've got some ATR black beauties to install as well as a Walbro fuel pump, but I think you have to drop the tank for the fuel pump which probably won't be fun at Nats. So if anyone can help me change some wires, it would be greatly appreciated. AND, once it's done, I will have a case of beer for the helpers to polish off with me!

Re: Wrenching at Nats?

Should I pick up some new plugs as well while I'm changing the wires or does it really matter?

Re: Wrenching at Nats?

if ya got the fender wells out for the wires, might as well do the plugs imo. but as long as i dont break down and need to wrench on my truck im always up for turning some wrenches:tup:

I'm totally in for wrenching... (if I get a boost launch/ride after the work!!!!)


"will work for boost"<--------------------------

As for the Walbro, I recommend bringing an air compressor and an impact wrench and impact sockets.......also a flathead screwdriver and hammer..... :lol:

If you are the first to respond to this post and:

1. Owns a Typhoon, and this is your first SyTy Nats
2. Does not have a walbro fuel pump
3. Offers to give Chris a hand if he decides to do the fuel pump.



Gets this free at the Nats.....

I'm out of the running, because this isn't my first nats, and my truck won't be there.
Also doing the fuel pump is a bitch.. good luck to whomever helps him out.

Re: Wrenching at Nats?

I will be wrenching. I need to lower the rear, and change injectors/chip. I also need to change my shift governor. It all depends on how many extra parts I bring. Governor is my main concern, else there will be no KCIR!

 

[Captain Morgan]

Re: Wrenching at Nats?

Governor is like a 5 min job if I remember correctly, just bring some black silicone with ya :tup:

Will there be wrenching at nats.......Of course there will.....

First year I attended I helped Hardman put his truck togethor almost in the parking lot. It kinda ran after that, but not real well....I think it made the trip to the track anyway, and maybe a few laps around the parking lot.
