On a side note, anyone local done the !PCV mod or modified the system to reduce oil consumption? I burned 1.5 quarts in my first 1100 miles with 10W-30 oil. About 100 miles ago I changed to 10W-40 hoping to fix the problem. So far I dont have huge black piles of burnt oil on the floor beneath my tips from startup
but I would still like to updgrade the PCV system.

I'd offer assistance on the clutch, but my garage is far from capable of housing a vehicle.
Probably hitting car craft, no intention of going to BttF here.

Went to Bttf today, kinda sucked it started raining, but it was still pretty fun. A LOT of cars thats for sure, im sure i missed quite a few too. I went with my friends family, and they wernt too interested and wanted to get out of the rain so we didnt stay as long as i would have liked, but oh well. The cars at the Car Craft show are more my style, dont get me wrong, the cars at BTTF are nice, but i like muscle cars better

Just got word that DynotuneUSA will be at Car Craft next month. The premier mobile chassis dyno in the Midwest. This was the same guy that was going to be in Prior Lake a few weeks ago. I'll be there helping out so stop by.
It'd be nice to get all these cars on the same dyno to see how they compare(hint, hint, real world numbers)

Probably just going to let it sit up there this summer for sure as I really don't want it down here - this winter I have a set of heads and a clutch and new gears that need to go in it - and my friend that is storing it for me has a lift and all the tools I need, in a garage far larger than mine.
Car Craft will depend on how much time I have - I've got a few other plans and projects through the summer and my birthday falls right on that timeframe - sort of depends on how worn out on doing things I happen to get before that time.

Does anyone run TSP TDs (dumped), I'm thinking about getting them with Moroso Spiral Flows when I buy my LTs. I just wanna know if I can handle them 
Also, does anyone wanna delete my EGR, AIR and O2 codes?
