Hey Rich,

I'm kind of new to the ZR-1 world and would like to come out and meet some of the other ZR-1 owners, so count me in also. I think I spoke to David about this just today, glad you're doing it on Sunday. I'll plan on coming up and being there at 8a, not sure exactly how long I can stay but, anything else I need to do aside from just show up?

Welcome to the "Brotherhood" and nope, just show up and meet the WAZOO. Just knock on the garage door if no one is out front when you arrive.

Rich,

Yun,
Which kind? The only one I have is for the round pins found in the O2 sensor connectors.

Yeah...Yeah....Well since my ceiling height is only 9 or so FT, you can't fully stand up under my lift, so it makes a jack a necessity. Jim really took a like'n it it :-D

You probably wouldn't have held the transmission level so David could set his iPad on it... :D

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-7LDMdhJ1xzQ/TxNeFla6x_I/AAAAAAAAAJc/1lQ5mnxOz_0/s720/DSC03269.JPG

Hopefully, though, the jack still gave David a hard time about bringing an iPad in the first place to a trans pull. Otherwise, I don't see how it could be considered a replacement?

Actually, as long as mass=torque equation holds true (I believe it's Newtonian law of physics...), Darrin will always be relevent. Rusted nuts and 500 ft/lbs torque specs help too!

I can verify that Darrin has been an asset to the FAMILY and has not yet been deemed obselete, :saluting:
