We would be honored to have the Rocketman in attendance!

For those of you that do not know, Art held the very first Tech Session in his garage several years ago, which makes him the "Godfather" of Tech Sessions!

Thanks for the offer, glad to have you on board Art!

Hi Doug,

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas.

I will be a helper, and let me know what might be needed for potluck.

I would like to have the Fat Mat installed. Also, would the Corvette servo be a good idea for my automatic? If so, where would I obtain one and could it be installed at Tech Session?

Phil and I will be there for sure. Add us for Mikes tranny kit and Fat mat. Maybe more as time gets closer, and potato salad for the pot luck Thanks (Phil will also help wherever needed)

If you're considering gear swaps before the Tech Session, please pull the trigger soon and PM me.

You are first on the list for FatMat because you got missed in Redlands and Kerrville.

If you are attending the Tech Session and would like an HP tune by tuner extraodinaire Joe Delano, please post on this thread ASAP.

We need to make it worth Joe's while to come over from Carlsbad CA.

If you're interested in pinstriping by Master Pinstriper Tony Perez, please post on this thread so we can make it worth his while also.

After Joe Delano and Hank Wolf swapped out my 112 Magncharger to the 122 HH I had a few cycle time outs, don't know why.

I disconnected the battery at the jump terminal, waited 10 minutes and reconnected, and no more problems in over a year. Make sure you re cycle your windows after you do this.

Doug, I'm very interested in the gear swap. I have contacted J & S Gear and can place an order on Mon. I need to know if Joe is comming over to do the tunes that I signed up for before I have the gears swapped out. I will commit to both if it will fit. I will also commit to a dent repair if he will be there. I will be there regardless if any or all of this works out and will help with anything that needs to be done. Will also bring a potluck dish as indicated in an earlier post.

Doug, put me on the list if you can get the guy from dentless images or another Paintless Dent repair. Also maybe a corvette servo.

I can take care of the gear change in the computer assuming you are going to 4.10s. Just a few miles from J&S.

That is for a reminder and I will commit to dent repair since I have some "finger print" dents in the bed cover.

He lives here Art.

I'm pretty sure Joe will come over, but in the event he does not, Zane (Zs SSR) and Hank Wolf both have HP tune software locally, so I'd say go the gear swap.

Sorry for the mis understanding. I am going to order the gears from J & S but will have them installed here in Phoenix where I live. I will be over to the tech session here after I have the gears installed and want to have Joe do a tune and adjust for the gear swap at that time. Thanks for the offer to help out if I was in So Calif.

I would also like to install the mole skin for the windows if time permits.
I already have it, and need to put it on, hopefully with some expert help.

This year we'll be performing whatever needs that can reasonably be done from 6:30 AM until (roughly) 4:00 PM.....

My favorite Father-In-Law Jim will again be our chef - we'll provide the burgers and dogs, sodas and water - the rest is Pot Luck, so please let us know what you'd like to bring


Potential Work Items -


Ignition Switch Replacement
Spare Tire Carrier Installation
Hood / Tonneau Deck Strut Replacement
Sway Bar Replacement
Lowering Spring Installation
Differential / Tranny Pan Removal and Replacement
Brake Pad Replacement
Satin to Chrome Parts Swap
Oil Changes
Cooling Fan Replacement
Auxiliary Fan Installation
Radiator Support Replacement
Tranny Cooler Installation
Muth Mirror Installation
Soundproofing (FatMat)
Ad Nauseam.....

As an added bonus, Joe Delano, the Guru of SSR tunes, will be on hand to perform HP tunes for your R's, provided we can give him a minimum of 10 R's to tune. The cost per tune will be $ 135.00 per tune - a SMOKING DEAL - AZ TPI charges a MINIMUM of $ 250 per tune, and Joe is driving over from his home in SoCal. Let's make it worth his effort!

World renowned Pinstripe Artist Tony Perez has informed me that he will be available onsite for pinstriping if there is interest. You can contact him directly for information and pricing via his website - Pinstriping and Vehicle Wraps

If anybody is contemplating having gears installed, Allen at The Gear Shop will install your gears (supplied by you) for $ 450.00, including GM gear lube and a new pinion seal. PM me for more info - Joe Delano can calibrate your R while he's here if you get the gear install done before the Tech Session.


Please post your needs on this thread, as well as any parts needed for your desired work items. We'll make sure the parts are on hand if you wish us to provide them, at our cost.

The location is the same as last year -

Gunsight Construction
5959 N. 55th Avenue
Glendale, AZ. 85301

We will need lots of help, so if you are willing and able to help out, please let us know.

The list starts here - first come, first served!
