X2  ^^^  What he said.  I got a new dizzy that's been curved on a machine, new plugs, newly rebuilt Ebrock carb on a 460.  It runs great in the driveway ( a little rough down low) but on the water and hammer down it surges and pops mildly.  Any of you experts wanna work for alcohol?  I can't seem to find anybody who knows what they are doing.
And how come people keep telling me there are no timing marks?  How the hell do you time it w/o a mark?

It looks to be an epic weekend, hope I can make it.

I have free drinks, either on the water or back at the Palms, for somebody with some engine knowledge to help me time my motor and give me some pointers on what I can do with this Ford to get a little more out of what I have now.

The timing is close but I think it needs some fine tuning. Ill bring the extra springs and weights for the dizzy and a light and anything else that may be useful.

bring a timing light, i dont need one but good to reasure your where u need to be and it isnt something else your fighting.  if you dont have someone else figure it out im more than glad to try and help!

It may be that you have marks for initial timing, but your MAX timing is off the scale.  All you need is a "dial back" timing light, problem solved.... Most people set their timing at "all in" at a given RPM, and let the initial fall where it will.... If you don't get a "dial back" and/or need help after you get here, give me a call...
Ray 805 300 0012

PS...Seriously guys/girls, I'm here in Bullhead most of the year, so when you guys choose to come here to the river, it means a lot to me to make sure you don't have any bullfeathers problems that spoil your weekend. Tony and I are "shop" neighbors, these are NOT businesses, just hobby shops for engines, boats, quads, customs, etc etc.... We'll be more than happy to help anyone that needs it, be it a trailer issue, a vehicle failure, or an actual boating problem.... "Mi casa, su casa" so to speak, (and I apologize to the Spanish speaking for my BS attempt at My house, your house....).... I'm at the shop 24/7 unless I'm out boating or drinking, running errands etc etc.......AND, my help COULD extend to being a Designated Driver if any of you want to "bar hop" in beautiful downtown Bullhead City...... Just call my friends, just call......

PSS When is the planned " launch"? is it Friday, Thursday, Saturday??? OH, to anyone that hasn't been here, DO NOT exit the launch area on the downriver end, VERY shallow, ASK someone that knows the river before trying to cut thru there,  AND when you see a bush sticking out, bare to the east shore, 50-75' away from the bush.....

Hopefully, we will be rollin' in around 1:00 - 2:00 Friday afternoon.
I suspect the guys that are there will be at the cove or maybe Lazy Harrys.
Do you really have to walk the boats in to Harrys ?
Are there any park rangers or anything at Big Bend ?

Well, no, you don't have to walk them in, but if you drive in you WILL suck some weeds if you're driving a jetboat...Sure, you can always clean them out, but it's just a hassle most don't need. The water flow has been DOWN lately, so please be very careful in unfamiliar areas... As far as Rangers at Big Bend, I've never launched there. I'm pretty sure the LE here in BHC has backed off on patrols after Labor Day, and Nevada only uses "Game and Fish" officers, and I've only seen them once or twice out in the river. Nev G&F will stand on the Casino docks and motion you in for mufflers, but we just ignore them since they don't have a boat!!!! Our noise laws are like everywhere else. It depends on who sees you, your actions at the time, and of course your SOBRIETY.... For the most part, those of us locals without mufflers, (I have some in, that may come out for this weekend), just back off and make sure we have water flowing out the headers when we see a LE boat coming.... I would advise AGAINST any early morning open header blasts near the houses as BHC PD will come if they get any phone calls. Most shoreline residents are cool, but it only takes one to drop the dime...... I assume the "cove" is at the ramp you're using. There are nice beaches there, and it's kinda in the middle between Davis Camp and the Avi for short day trips.... I'll get with Tony and see when he's headed out to see you guys, and most likely join him, and maybe a few other locals......
Ray
PS Mike, "Sold Honda Bought Hondo", may drive his Hydro up from Havasu on Saturday...... Long trip, but it's a v drive so he gets much better mileage than us jets....
PSS The Avi area has been VERY low in the mornings, very low....

Time to bust out some serious mspaint skillz....mad-MSpaint-skillz

This is a picture of the big bend area...


RED - Back Bay Entrance
ORANGE - Back Bay Beaches
YELLOW - Big Bend Park (Launch Ramp)
GREEN - Lazy Harrys (entrance is just north of the POW Memorial and south of the Gas Line)

The "cove" previously referred to is vague to me....I assume the cove at the Avi?

I dont know where the majority of people are hanging out. I know some like to hang out in the Back Bay, but I would prefer if we didnt hide back there due to so many new people coming out on this trip. Theres plenty of nice beaches along the river and the traffic should be minimal so the water shouldnt be too rough. I'll bring the SCJB flag so people can spot us...
