Default I'm thinking of taping my swap this weekend...anyone interested...

in purchasing a copy of the tape on VHS?

Just curious. Of course I'd need to see how informative it was first...some editing, etc.

I wouldn't be trying to make a killing here, just trying to help out others.

No skimpy chicks installing.

My gf will be there, but I don't want you guys drooling over her. Plus she dresses conservative in public...but not for me when we're NOT in public. LOL.

Great idea. I wish I had documented mine better (to prove I actually did it if nothing else). If a picture is worth a thousand words how much is a video worth? LOL

Anyway, i'm sure you can generate a lot of interest in it. I know i would have found it interesting when i started.

I'll let you guys know when I'm finished with it.

Thanks.

Also, I don't plan on selling this tape to make a ton of $$. I was thinking of charging $10-$15 + shipping, depending on how much time I spend on editing, etc.

If it was informative and covered everything (ecu, tranny, engine fitting, etc) then id buy a copy for 15$. I stress on 'very informative'... do lots of explaining.

My plan is to record everything from a tripod setup, then go back and explain everything in detail, then edit and cut it to VHS in order to make it a step by step process which I HOPE will be very informative. I'll probably have my friend (who used to own and run and import tuner shop and has done MANY swaps) give his synopis. Does that make sense?

-Record everything
-Record a 2nd time when it's all done and add commentary and step by step style instructions
-Edit and cut to VHS and put it all together in order.

How does that sound?

i made a tape of my swap last fall. from start to finish. took a few weeks to do the swap, but it flies by in an hour or so on video. a lot of fun to watch and i make copies of it for friends who are trying to attempt the swap themselves. also made a longggggg *** journal which you can check out on my website
