kuleinc: what were you driving at the NAG meet? At the next one you should come up and say hi

BulletBug: The motor build is here but basically it's a fuel injected 2165cc, that's been dry sumped and turboed.

I didn't see your car last friday... I drive a primered 73 super beetle, with HID headlights, and my brother in law drives a skittle blue standard 72 beetle. We're having a bit of bad luck with his motor and cams going flat and eating lifters, we're on our second time around on it, and I think its flat again, he basically has the same motor as I do, except with an engle 120 instead of 110, we'll find out for sure tomorrow...

I got to the meet last friday late, I was the guy with one headlight and one taillight out....

I wasn't able to make it out last friday unfortunately, I was stuck at work until 8 so I just headed home (60 hour week for me). That sucks about the motor though, is he running dual springs or HD singles?

Are you close enough to Santa Clara/Cupertino to hit the BLTN meets on thursdays at Lawrence Expy and Stevens Creek? I'm usually there every week.

I'm gunna have to make a trek to one of the NAG meets, just need things to settle down around here. I have a 1 week old son now, so I'm busy being dad at the moment!

Yeah, I just saw that, congrats again! Once he's a little older you should definitely drag him out to nag, there's a bunch of vw rugrats now

We live in the town just north of the NAG meets, I do work in Fremont though... Maybe one Thursday after work I'll head out there. He's running dual springs, I think we got it sorted out now though, he kept bending pushrods too, had to replace a couple of tubes. Now we're working out on the fuel side of the motor, his electric fuel pump has turned his carbs into fuel injectors lol, its gettin there though, its super smooth sounding...
