[SVT for a16 year-old]

I was bored and i happened to see a lot of svt sightings from around here, so...i just got to wondering if maybe a bunch of us could meet pu somewhere or if there was one already planned in the near future.

Guys/gals:

I'm doing a 3L install for a NECO member (Andyman) this weekend in my garage in Gainesville. More than happy to host- My wife will be at a baby shower Saturday. Bring some burgers/dogs, we'll grill out.

PM for cell # and directions.

^^^ ahh, my parents live in Fairfax...if my gf weren't coming down to Cville this weekend I'd totally be down for meeting you guys in Gainesville...maybe another weekend...

[LilCe98]

I'll be in Fairfax this weekend. I'm not sure for how long though. How much do you charge for a 3L swap?

[DanG]

Total cost depends on options (head work, port matching, don't forget tuning!) Labor charge I pretty much have nailed down- I quote ~20-24 hours of labor for everything (build 3L if necessary, remove old engine, swap over everything, install 3L, shakedown test), but that's a pretty generous figure and I usually come in under that.

However, my wife and I are expecting in August- So past mid-July, I'm not taking any more work for the foreseeable future. So this is probably the last one I'll be doing for a while.

If anyone is interested. Tomorrow morning at MIR, MACA(Mid Atlantic Cobra Association) are going head to head againt EFA(Eastern F-body Association). I'm going to be down there as a spectator.

[281Thunder]

Sooo uh yeah, why not get something started before summer's over? My other car club, we've done Dave and Busters in the Rockville (?) area a few times. It's a good place to meet up and hang out, lots of room for parking and pics, and I think it'd be fairly central.

[kidSVT]

i'd be game for something..

Lol, if you only knew. I am old man, real old. I should be asking you those questions. :shrug:

[rollinstylee]

asking me...what questions exactly? You can see where I live, you don't have your location or age indicated, not that I asked about your age anyway. :shrug: Just saw "new member" and the join date and welcomed you...SORRY! Still didn't say where you're located...I asked b/c I'd like to know of people who are active on here around Fairfax or Cville.

That is what I use to drive.

[rollinstylee]

Still no mention of location...that's fine, guess you don't want to share. VERY nice tour, too bad you don't have it anymore. One of the best looking ones I've seen.
