The weather report looks grim, so I'll probably bring my vehicle whose windshield wipers work.  But since this is a Chevvy thing, I guess that'll be OK. And I'll bring a tape measure to see how well the new bowtie will fit in my ole C4. Rich |

Unfortunately I'll have to miss Wednesdays extravaganza due to work.
When is a good time to get on that dyno of yours? Don't forget I still have lots of white space on my car

Steve,
Thanks again for hosting the GMPP/E-Rod event at the Mustang Ranch today! Great turn out and an excellent lunch from Bucca De Beppo.

Excellent. If I blow up my C4 autocrossing it, I now have a quick fix. Not painless, but as good as it gets. I even saw my corvette club's autocross director there. She wants more oomph in *her* C4.  Rich |

All,
Thank you for coming down today, I learned a great deal and I am impressed with the GMPP offering in the ERod concept.
There will be follow-on presentations with GMPP and many others, we will try to bring you manufacturers, vendors and information to help you with your project.
I do hope that the GMPP offerings are complimented with more variations in their line, and with that of other manufacture, giving the marketplace and the enthuisast choices.
Rich,
Mim is a good friend , and I am sure we will be reviewing Her C4 autocross machine. -- note : we are now the only Bay Area shop that will touch a First Gen ZR1. after all it was designed by lotus, which subscribes to the British book of complications. 
See you guys soon !
Pictures on the way.
Steve

Looks like a great event. For those who missed out and would like to catch the E-ROD in person, Hillbank and Superformance are having an open house Saturday, April 17 from 10am-3pm featuring the E-ROD! The shop is at 6 Autry in Irvine, California. There's a press release below with the details.

Am I the ONLY one that thinks that motor, in fact all the LS series motors, look like a piece of crap???
I mean, just LOOK at those valve covers, for instance. I'd be ashamed to open the hood, seriously.

Well certainly when compared to a SOHC FE with Webers like Al's. |

There's a nice big plastic Corvette plate that covers all of that up. Sure it looks like crap...you just don't ever open your hood up.

Here's a bit more on the E-ROD, the '55 Chevy GM mounted it in for SEMA, and the open house at Superformance/Hillbank – with pictures!
