So I'm still searching for a droop/diverter kit. That hph looks sweet but does that include a diverter? Doesn't appear that way

Cut the line and use a deep socket and deal with after it's off and try to spin the 90 off and then figure out a better way I rig it?

On top of the tank theres a 90 degree AN fitting that the house hooks to. Theres about 1/4" between the fitting and the deck of the boat.

Ok so my fuel lines are leaking. But i CANNOT get them loose from the tank. There is no room in there to get a wrench in there and i just cant figure it out. The tanks are plastic and i think to remove them you have to cut them out. Any tips/tricks?????

Ok still haven't gotten around to pulling motor. But is there a way to tell if it's oil pan or rear main without pulling motor?

When i got the motor i pulled stock pan off and put my dooley 14qt pan on it. Should have done rear main while i was there. My mistake. Everything inside the motor looked great. Runs awesome just leaks oil. Lol.

Unplug the wire at sending unit and the gauge goes to zero. Its a brand new auto zone sending unit.

I have a gaffrig II oil pressure gauge. I used the sending unit that was already on the motor. (Stock gm) the gauge just pegs out to 80 when key is turned on. Do i need a gaffrig sending unit or is something wrong? Ive tried to figure out if i have a wire crossed but all wiring seems correct.

Engine Mechanical / Electrical / Bbc cam?
« on: March 15, 2014, 02:37:19 PM »
I am putting a stock 454 out of an 83 rv into my southwind. I want to toss a cam in it just to give it a good choppy idle. Not expected a whole lot out of the motor as far as speed its just a lake boat for now. Whats a good sounding cam that doesnt require changing the valve springs and all that. Just cam and lifters.
