That was a lot of fun, haven't had that grin on my face (while driving anyway
) for a loooong time. Overheated the piss out of my battery though, got home and it had popped one of the covers up on the top, and was boiling and hissing! Whats the cause do you suppose- bad voltage regulator, bad batt, or high engine compartment temps? (It was around 3/4 on the old oil temp gauge during most of that "spirited" driving)

Youll have to check the voltage as you rev the engine up, over 14 will cook the battry. Could have dislodged the plates and shorted the battery too.

Plug the holes in your engine tin, that's my story and i'm sticking with it.
Nice to meet you!
What is it about the women in Carnation, Kelty almost got slapped for looking down the shirt of our Beermaid.
And his comment " I think I lost my keys in your tanktop" probably didn't help.

Hey guys. I'll be back in the Tacoma area from the 5th to the 19th. Flying in, so no 914. Especially since she decided to drop a valve seat yesterday.
Luckily it happened while just checking compression, so pretty minimal damage hopefully.
BBQ on the 7th or 14th? Anyone have a stock 2.0 head laying around they could part with?

And while we would be in there the LE is still running rough and is getting too hot, I need some help with timing. Who has time?

South End 914's? Maybe the 7th could work especially since sportlicherFahrer is visiting in Tacoma...
I'm busy as hell preparing for a National Conference for 650 attendees that starts August 15th, so time is a premium for me as it approaches. A night out on the 7th would be great...anyone else in from the south?

I would be in for having something in the south end, but I will be on my honeymoon/vacation from the 6th through the 10th. I work at Boeing Field and live in Oly, but I could have my car back in Tacoma by 6:30 on most days. I'm not ready to drive it to work in all of that traffic until I get the side shift tranny put in this winter, so I'll have to run home to get it.
We'll see how my car does driving down to Lincoln City for the trip. Hopefully I don't have to spend the entire trip working on it

on week days southsounders only have to drive north before 2pm for a 6pm (still can be iffy) beer and burger to avoid the greater seattle commute nightmare. the 4th worst in the nation. then there's the upcoming Seafair festivities. throw in a sounders match or mariners game, and road construction/closures. it's just too much.

I can provide "near" waterfront access, I also can provide a "trailer park" but we would need to drive to eastern Wa.
We live on the south end of Lake Sammamish in Issaquah, even Rhodyguy can get here easily if he takes the backroads(hgwy 18), I'll even let him stay overnight if he needs his beauty sleep.
I'll be delighted to host on the the 7th if we can get the guy's from the south and guys from the north to agree that traffic sucks! BBQ and beer, a little bit of 914 stuff.
