Get together in Gettysburg, PA!

Dyno day and then BBQ @ Darrin Catt's farm (close to the dyno).

Anyone interested, please post up.

The dyno will likely start about 9am to 1pm and we will then go to Darrin's.


Anyone interested please post up, PM or email me and I will send you Darrin's address.

First Wazoo event of 2012!

:cheers:

David

OK we are going to go off the wall here and try a unusual date to start everyone early at getting over their cabin fever. We will be having the WWW.RKT56.COM (http://www.rkt56.com/) dyno day on MARCH 31st 2012 Saturday.
Dyno jet and we will be working on some grilling action and sodas for the attendee's. We were snowed out in OCTOBER of last year. How the HECK did that happen I have no idea. So we want to get this year off to a great start.

LOCATION:
Keiths Pitstop
2784 York Road
Gettysburg, PA 17325

$50.00 for 3 pulls with WIDEBAND o2!!!
Dyno is 2 wheel drive only.

Dont forget to visit www.RKT56.com (http://www.rkt56.com/) for your Corvette driveline upgrades. He's a great sponsor to have here and showing his appreciation with getting us together for a fun dyno day.

I will update this thread as needed.

I will be at the Carroll County Home Show on March 31, so I won't be able to make it to the dyno.

But, if you are still BBQ'ing at about 7 PM, I can make it up to Darrin's. I will check with you on Saturday.

Looks like I won't make this one. My parts will not even ship back to me until late next week. I don't think I can get everything back together in one weekend.

I will be having Hamburgers and hot dogs along with assorted salads and soft drinks. If you would like a malted style adult beverage please feel free to bring your choice of flavor. If a few guys could also bring a folding chair that would be good also.
Keiths Pit stop is on Route 30 about 2 miles east of Route 15. After we are done there we can go to my place. I'm less than 10 minutes from there. If anyone has questions or gets lost please call me on my cell at 410-977-8187. Looking forward to spending the day with the WAZOO fellers....

Looks like I won't be able to make it. Went out to drive the vette to work this morning and found this.

http://www.zr1.net/forum/picture.php?albumid=168&pictureid=1222

I felt all the hoses, none were wet, and the leak seemed to be dripping from the center between the front wheels, nothing under the radiator. So I'm guessing water pump, so no quick fix. But, I'll confirm when I pick up an inspection mirror this evening.

I won't be able to be there for the Dyno runs, so I am sending my son, Roger, with the 1993 Quazar Blue. I finally got all the issues sorted out and need after porting numbers.

I will get to the cookout at Darrin's later in the afternoon.

I hope a lot of ZR-1's will make it to the Dyno site.

Thanks Darrin for setting this up and hosting it.

Well, I'm stumped. It had leaked a half gallon of coolant over 24 hours, with a cold motor sitting parked. Filled it back up and drove to a garage where I can get under it and get a better look at it, and it hasn't leaked a drop. I'm going to remove the tensioner to get a better look at the water pump area, but I have to wait for the motor to cool. I'm guessing it likely isn't a water pump now, as I would think it would leak worse with pressure/heat and that isn't the case.

I'll probably be there tomorrow, hopefully in the ZR-1, but if not in my Rubicon. We can always dyno that if everyone wants a good laugh.

I'm getting used to this, the enging bay is quite a bit more crowded than my L98. Hard to see anything from under or above.

What a great time time today.
Nice to meet some new ZR-1 people and of course always great to see old friends too!

Thanks Darrin for hosting a great Wazoo BBQ today on your beautiful farm. We had an absolutely fantastic time. I will upload some pictures from the Dyno pulls, maybe even a video... and some more great shots of our ZR1 bretheren down on the farm. I was a little dissapointed when my bone stock (just a chip and K&N) ZR1 pulled only 321 rwhp/325 tq, but then I remembered that the stock c6 that went before me pulled 339 rwhp... Everyone said the Dynojet was running about 20hp low vs. other dyno pulls people there had run. Still accounting for 15% drivetrain friction loss, that works out to engine horsepower of 378.

Now that I know my baseline;
K&N filter - 20hp
E3 spark plug - 10hp
Z-max -10hp
Turbonator - 20hp

etc... etc... 500hp is right around the corner!

I must say, I haven't had so much fun in awhile.:cheers:
