And thanks for mentioni evaporust. Had never hears of it b4. Bought some and did the caliper mounting brackets on my rear SVT brake kit and now they look almost brand new. Gotta get more to soak the spindles and calipers next.

..not all, just those in running condition :p

just remember that after soaking stuff in evaporust, be careful with water

after using evaporust you can rinse it in water, but don't leave it to dry on air. get the part dry with clothe, and if you will not paint it right then and there, then you need to spray wd40 on it to keep the moisture out,


evaporust leaves 'pores' in the material that absorb humidity and oxidize (rust) away instantly
 
Houston has so many more car people than Dallas! So sad.

Honestly, it didn't always use to be that way.

When I lived in Dallas, between 2001 - 2005, there were plenty of guys. And they would have the Pig Roast parties in Mesquite. We would also meet in Plano, the Costco Parking lot in Arlington and one time in the stockyards area.

There were probably about 10-14 focuses then as well.

Only in the past 4 years has the Houston crew grown so much. We went from a few of us to around 15-20 guys in and out.

Austin, also has a few guys here and there. And at one point San Antonio had about 5-10 guys as well.

With the the newer Foci and ST Focus now, we may get those numbers back up again.

Yeah so what we doing for May and when? Daniel had talked about install party at his house but that just happened twice lol. I'm cool with whatever so long as I have about 3 weeks notice lol. Which guess still 2nd Saturday or maybe Sunday.
 
So most of you already know, but my SVT is very ill. And I have no idea how to fix it. Timing is off completely, so, this Sunday, although such short notice. If anybody would like to come help with it and by help I mean tell me what to do and how to do it and bring some timing tools, that would be awesome. Also, we can work on other cars or whatever. Basically a small install sort of a meet. PM me for my address. I'll invest in some burger meat and coals, so we'll have that going to.
