Hey Daniel,
I was going to ask if you can get the 30th off to come to Willowbank but remembered it is your birthday  Charlie should be coming down to and racing in the soarer so it should be good.

haven't organised it yet but shouldn't be hard. Maybe josh can do it if he isn't racing? I don't know if I could trust Felicia to the filming! Monique isn't coming because of work. Blake might come so he may do it. Otherwise, Len maybe coming as well but he may be racing also. So there should be someone with decent camera skills in there somewhere

Sorry for no update, but I don't think I will be ready to race yet. Have to sort some stuff out. I would say I am a 10% chance at the moment.

Aah oh then
I would use $40 of the $600 for labour and hire a hoist and do it with the starlet guys. Same engine swaps are piece of piss!

Yeah there are little extra bits to do, but a mechanic will have to do them as well (hopefully) and it will cost you at least $50/hr for them to do it. I would start an event called "engine swap day" on the starlet site. Give everyone beer and a bbq and I am sure you will get the numbers

hahah if i was supplying beer and bbq "engine swap day" would turn into , everyone sit around n chat n play soccer n chat n sit around and "not work on the engine at all day"
one of the guys workshops is going to do it all for 400 bucks
he just rang like 3 minutes ago so thats realy cheap,

Yeah that is a good price. It cost me $500 labour about 3 years ago for a 1g to 1g swap in my soarer.
