Brad, should I bring my own tool set to help out? Or will we have enough. Have most of what we need outside of special tools.

Brad, you might want to bring your own. Not sure how many projects we will have going at the same time.

I just confirmed my ski trip this weekend, sorry I won't be there for the fun. Frankly, I'd rather ski......

Call if you get stuck on something, I'll prolly be at the top of the mtn.

Doc, I hate you.
To rest of you:
I will bring a combo flywheel lock(good for 16 or 32 valve)
I can only stay till 1:30. Grandson's first birthday party.
I really don't see the advantage of the Porkensioner on the normal 16 valve cars. You break a timing belt. Big deal! Whoopee! Line up the cams and put another one on. No fuss and no damage.
16 valve Euros and all 32 valve cars: I plan to retrofit the porkensioner the next timing belt change. JMHO

Think Brad said start about 8. Told my wife I would not be home till late. If you make it home for dinner it would be a late one I would think.

It's not looking good for me making it. Still have the front suspension out and been too tired from work to work on it. Going to bed early tonight hopefully that will do the trick.

I will have full kits of parts available for each participant - no worries.
Need to know if you are going with the PKensioner or not.
Most of our cars except for the early ones are interferance so there is a significant advantage to using it.
Never mind the cost savings.
Need to know as soon as possible if you are in or not Travis.

Time wise we will work all day and into the evening. We may be finishing off on Sunday morning worst case.
