ready to read your "svo projects to be finished before reunion" list

[140cilx]

My 4th reunion and I think 3rd time to run this thread. I'm already stoked and ready for the reunion!

So any/what mods for the car(s) to do or finish before this reunion?

I like the details, make it interesting so I know what to look for on your car!

This year my car is getting the following:

Ported and polished head (and therefore hopefully a couple more psi boost - 21 or 22)
Automotorsport Roller Cam
Bob Log Header
Mandrel Turbo outlet elbow
Volvo front mount to replace the TC front mount
New Tires
Bigger Swaybars

and a FRESH COAT OF WAX BABY!

[Gator]

Awww hell man....Carlisle is in like a week, and my 2R still aint running.

So I figure by October....I should have at least washed it.

[SVOVET]

Sell my last svo

[svobrown]

Got to Dyno and tune in the MAF. Looking for 300 hp this year
Got to Replace something on the brakes.

May do the 8.8 swap.

May do a little paint to the car, Or hide it with the bra again.

May work on the springs from my old parts and lower it some.

Same 5 year old tires, rebuilt block and head, new/old T5,

Got to build a tilt bed trailor to haul it on.
Call it the load and go.

Hey James I could use some help down this way.

[SVOeric]

The 1E needs lowering springs. and I have a set of rear upper control arms to go on it also. While I'm at it, I should probably box the lowers.


the 1C needs the a cam, the rest of the engine assembled, the engine, and transmission put in, nose, rear bumper cover, painted, trim painted, and a ton of little stuff done.

[jef855svo]

My 2R needs a few things:

Polishing a new set of SVO wheels

Cleaning engine compartment

Gillis Valve

3" down pipe

New windshield (cracked)

Get her running real good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good waxing and cleaning!

[Chris Hadden]

I might wash mine.

[ledfoot]

I'm gonna change my rims and seats back to the "stock" ones. Then hit some autoX to freshen up my skills.

[svoman2300]

Once again I have an engine to put in. However I will be getting the tranny next week so I won't be putting the engine in a couple of weeks before the reunion. I just hope it stays together.
Vic do you hope to be SVOless soon?

[roberto2000]

I guess if you change the seats back to original then you can run the autox as "factory" and not modded:p

I plan on doing a new clutch and some rear bushings

[Bingo13]

A short list........

Transmission rebuild
Differential rebuild
Steering Rack / Shaft
Power Steering Pump / new hoses
Rear Control Arms
Alternator
Replace turbo lines / gaskets
CAI
Floor Mats
New rear window trim.
Radiator upgrade.
Radiator fan replacement.
Master Cylinder.
R134a conversion since the R12 setup detonated....
Dozen other items just to get it road ready.
Figure out why the car runs like crap......

[Ken Potter]

Hey Eric, Do you still want the rear bumper cover from me? I'm planning on at least showing up in the truck and spending Sat & Sun if don't bring the 2R. I can easily bring the cover if you still want / need it by then? I might bring a few other items to try and offset the cost... just light stuff like window trim or maybe some intakes and turbos.

[SVOeric]

yea Ken -- I'll be down (or arange something) before then to get it.

[indiana dave]

Well, Mine is still in the condition it was in when it missed last years reunion

So, I guess I need to:
Get a new turbo
Finish porting the intake and E6
install new Kirban AFPR
drill out broken bolt in tranny and finish installing new shifter
Finally get headliner in
Wash the inch of saw dust off of it from not getting it covered when I was cutting wood while remodeling the new old house (1866)
Air up tires and go!

[SVORob]
