1. Mike and I are meeting for lunch Saturday, which is the purpose of this thread. Others are welcome to join us as far as I'm concerned.

2. If I visit LRP this year it will *probably* be for the car show on Sunday.

3. I'm open for suggestions for a day trip to Alice's Restaurant and back before the weather gets too frosty.

Z has died again on the road. I'm having fuel pressure issues. Maybe just toss in a mechanical pump and call it a day.

I am telling you a Holley red electric pump has not let me down. Even after sitting for over ten years it ran for about a year before the seals started to leak. I had a replacement waiting in box.

Irv, Alice's Restaurant is 30 miles north of Lime Rock Park in Stockbridge, Mass. You can read all about our last trip here:

http://forums.ctzcc.com/viewtopic.php?t=5293

We will be starting a separate thread about a follow-up trip later. We had a pretty fine time last time we visited.

well thanks to talking to Chris i think i have a very good solution finally. using the pressure regulator i got from the fall outing i took i believe 2 years ago. i figured it was a new holley pressure regulator and never knew if i made need it. well here we are. so i got that and i will use my brand new stock fuel injection pump. the regulator will drop the pressure to the reuired 3.5psi. and i will change the filter i have before the pump to a G3 filter. i will do this tomorrow morning. if all goes well ill be roaring into Hawley Lane Plaza in Dangerous Z. :evil:
