FTE returns to Man Town - NorCal Tech day April 20th

Its that time again. We have scheduled a NorCal tech day at Man Town for Saturday, April 20th. Bring your projects, bring your beer, bring a desire to learn and help out.

Clay from Riffraff and his wife just had a new baby so don't expect him to attend. However, if you want parts from Clay and don't want to pay shipping, I will be passing by the Riffraff offices on a short weekend trip next weekend and will be happy to pickup whatever you have ordered and paid for. However, if you don't let myself or Clay know, I won't know to stop by and get your stuff.

I'm sure we'll do breakfast at Flames as always, so be prepared for that too.

Newcomers are always welcome. Andy will be by shortly to post up address and directions (you'll need them, your GPS WILL get you lost).

Woohoo!

618A Kalana Ave
Morgan Hill 95037

Corner of Kalana and Manfre. Your GPS will get you to Kalana, just make sure you find us at the corner house with a chain link fence and a bunch of tall trees.

Lets meet at Flames Coffee Shop at 8:00am. It's at the corner of Bernal and Santa Teresa. Bernal is an exit from 101 in S San Jose.

Glad to hear it and hope to be there. Thanks for hosting Andy!

Got a couple minor mods warming up in the box (AIS, door seal tubing) maybe I'll wait til then and bribe some helpers with borrowed beer.

I think I'm going to order some stuff. Doing some research into oil leaks and it looks like I'll order some O-rings just in case. May order the FRX and coupler re-inforcers too since i'm going to be in the valley anyway....


Anyone know where to get the ELC coolant locally or online? Truck is due for coolant change. probably going to do a filter too.
