What will be the available, plumbing if any?

Terlit? Shower? Should I throw in a couple of old 105s for p... tubes, and shovels to make a slit trench?

I'll probably bring a tent and cot, the tent is large if someone wants to share. I snore.

And will the Doc be posting a play list for us mediocre musicians to work on?

I was thinking just the opposite, sold out 5 months before the event. Like the Pope going back to Poland after the fall of the USSR. Poor cANaDonions the border patrol hasn't let a transmission Dr in for years...

Cuban Clinic anyone? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)


I am sure there will be a few Cubans at this event. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

#1 = bushes behind and away from the shop.
#2 = the wife might let you in, there's a camping potty but user hoses it out.

Hmmmm, only 532 miles. That would be worth the drive just for the entertainment value. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

No - that's great. Think how cool Larry would look rolling in on his new Ruckus sportin' his engineer hat!

C'mon - Boston is like a six hour drive (21-1/2 on the Ruckus). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)


edit: LESS than six hours. I keep forgetting Mark's place is way closer - he lives right on the eastern edge of Canada.


edit 2: not "technically" the eastern edge as there are the maritimes too but they are at the other end of the river.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)

So . . Mark's, that river, maritimes, ocean.

Unfortunately there's this pond, called Lake Ontario, that you have to drive around. Google maps says 536miles, 8 hours each way from Boston.

Google Maps Elizabethville, Ontario gets you close enough for planning a route.

Larry's coming from Boston - if he drives around the lake he's gone the wrong way . . .

Cross at Gananoque via I-81.

Hey Good Dr. Do you have a checklist of what we need to bring, re tools?? Do you bring parts in case I need a part? I'm on the computer cause the power went out at the Superbowl. I can see the TV from my desk, now my chips won't last til the end of the game!

Basic tools are all you need. I will bring special tools, and I will have a hoard of spare parts. You should either source your seal kit or have me buy it for you. The cost is about the same.

Just bring a basic tool kit, socket set with a few extensions, scrapers, brass brush, 2 cans of brake cleaner, work gloves and rags.

Wear old clothes or coveralls.

If you clean the outside of your tranny you will be farther ahead. I don't like to power-wash tranny's, but if you chance it take care as you can blow past seals. Be extra careful of the input shaft seal. If you do power-wash do it only days before the clinic. For those with air tools I do have a compressor, but it's not really needed.
I have a parts washing tank.

Dr Evil will have a supply of good used parts at good prices but the students also sell/buy/trade parts as well. Doc will tell everyone fair market value prices.
If you have two good cores you can often make one fully rebuilt transmission with little or no parts cost, other than the gasket kit.

Doc you don't need to bring your slider battle axe, I have one. I also have the extra long pinion nut socket.

Hi everyone. First time poster here. As much as I would like to attend this awsome event, time will not permit it. I hope there'll be another one in the US soon. Is there a way to get a copy of the DVD in the meantime? I would like to have a go at it and see what happens. What about the special tools that are needed. Are the discussed in the DVD? Can a person make theire own? Thanks

This is the Canadian clinic, Dr Evil is from Washington, PA, is sort of a travelling road show and may be having a clinic in your area, shoot him a PM.
