I'm taking breaks now and again... My car is in about 1000 pieces... :D

Right now, I disassembled everything, removed the old intake and have installed the blower's new lower intake and am getting ready to drop the blower assembly itself in, then I'll stop for the day and button 'er all up tomorrow. I still have the intercooler plumbing, belt plumbing, electrical and the boost-a-pump to install, along with the boost gauge...

It's been a loooooooooooooong day. Worst part so far has been the EGR tube, getting the old one off just right SUCKED! Fortunately, my Lightning experience told me it would be and it was the very first thing I attacked. I gave up and went down the street and bought the boys at the local garage lunch to get the damn EGR tube loosened for me.

From there, it's been clear sailing right on through. The instructions rock, I haven't actually gotten confused at all yet, which is a minor miracle.

Small correction basically right after work so You could go earlier the 1830 or
6:30 It was mentioned just park in back and go thru the open ? doors.

Good Morning Jeremy- it's Dan.
I hate to do the rambling post thing but think I've got some good info. for you. I will be at Market Hall at about 5:00 on the 12th. I'll be Marauderless- driving my commuter Ranger. I have no idea what set up needs to take place but I do know more hands makes it faster. The display is probably for the Lone Star Cougar Club. I am doubtful that Logan has his own display (he's not Batman). We normally meet the second Tuesday of every month at John Eagle L/M in Dallas. Why the Cougar club? It is a great organization that embraces our odd fetish for Marauders (I told you it was a cult) and Logan has a good history with the club. Discount parts/labor rates at John Eagle are a benefit as well as free pizza and B/S time with some nice folks. The Cagles (MR CV Sport from Hallsville) sometimes come in from Tyler for the meetings. Longview might be a stretch but I'd sure welcome you and Connie as members.

While the name implies cougar club, the club caters to all fomoco products...Even Rangers. :D

Coming from Longview isn't too bad of a stretch....it's only about 15 minutes interstate time to the Tyler exits. I'm in Dallas all the time, and may be in meetings on the 12th up there. I don't know yet, but will know here pretty soon. Joining the club sounds like fun! I may give that a shot! Now, when does the Autorama show actually start? And are ya'll going to only need help after 5:00 on that Thursday? Let me know! Thanks!

Autorama opens to the public at 10am Friday. and runs through late Sunday.

I was up at Eagle for a board meeting tonight... Took Sonny, Danny and a couple sales guys for a ride, they couldn't wipe the smiles off their faces... ;)
