Testing. I sent out a different email with a run down as to whats up with
me and everything VW. Just seeing if this works.

I've ventured into the world of smart phones over the past year or 2 and of

encourage you to do some deep scans on youtube and see if you can find
anything on there. Also, in depth thread searches on thesamba could also
help. They haven't helped me much with my quest for the stroker VW engine

Hi All,
I have a 69 vert in pieces for so long I forget the order that it came apart.
Can anyone tell me order of reassembling the dash? Assume dash pad, gauges and

NQ,
Longish on FI.
The 68 has been running megasquirt for 14 years. After I replaced the
pistons and cylinders I decided to leave the turbo off to be able to get
to places that I plan to update(edis and wide band o2 instead of
narrowband).
Works just fine that way although I did retune it
I’m still here and glad to see others are too. Agreed that Facebook feels weird
and isn’t a good replacement listserv.
Sad news about Bill May, feel bad for missing the report or worse, forgotten.
He was always a huge help.
Terrible news too about Rob Laffoon. He was always cool to me when
I will bug one of my friends who has w fuel injected bug. I know he did it
budget minded and used megasquirt. Think he used some fox body mustang
parts and milled up a crank trigger wheel.
Strangely thinking FI and vws makes me think of Sharkey. That car just got
parted out a short time ago after
Yep Jeff that's the same Bill May. His stamped louvered deck lid is now on
my 67 bus. He dropped it off on his way to California. As I recall Bill
got home from a funeral of a friend and succumbed to death himself. These
guys who lived ot are getting older and there is a steady stream of loss
Hi Dave. Thanks for your reply! You analogy about relatives picking up from
where they left off from is perfect. That's what this is. :)
I want this engine for my 62 double cab and 67 bus. I would not build this way
for a big, but torque is king in the bus and I want it all and I want it
NQ(and others).
Glad to see the list here. It reminds me of my relatives, don't talk for
5 years and then pick right back up like it was yesterday.
I've trimed my herd down to my 68 sedan(megasquirted 1776 turbo) and a 72
KG 1914. The turbo is newely back on the road after cracking a
"Yes when Bill died I felt so bad." Is that Bill May? I believe I have his
last name correct. This "Bill" I believe lived up north and then moved to
California. He was a walking encyclopedia on VW's. He helped me on several
occasions when I was restoring my 70 bug. Very nice and helpful.
