So I've been on the on-line today looking for a jet boat model that I can make with my boy but I can't find anything that even resembles a jet boat let alone my 78 southwind. Has anyone ever seen something like this or do you know who would make one thanksPost up some photos, that will help us out 👍

? Save some money else wereWell I guess I'm getting old. I've been a few times and I don't plan on attending. It has become just hanging out on a sand bar with 2000 of your new best friends trying to keep your boat from either getting swamped or beat to shit while hopping your anchor holds. You'll see a couple fast boats make a pass or 2, but most of the racing is done either on Friday, or after everybody heads back to the launch ramp and nobodies there to watch. You won't have any trouble if you take kids, all the people are very cool. You will see some really nice hardware there if you walk around. It's become more of a big get together to drink beer and shoot the breeze than fast boats making passes. The water turns to shit real fast and just won't allow for safe high speed passes, at least for the sober people. If this sounds like a good time, you'll have a blast. Enjoy!Iam right there with you buddy. Last year it took me 20 min to figure out how to get out of the cluster fuck of boats just to make a pass in shit water. It is a blast though. Friday is the day to be there. You'll see a lot of racing. Saturday is more of a shoot the shit day and pay 25 bucks for a t shirt.
Looking for a Relief valve to let air out of pump when putting boat in water with droop snoop.If your in socal hit up b1 racing. He has them
Keep getting air lock .
Please let me know if you might have one etc.
So it just a high side bleed on the pump to get the air out???With a full droop you'll get an air pocket in there and the boat won't move for 20 seconds or so. The prime a jet lets that air get out.
What is the symptom though Im curious. How do you know its happening?
What are some opinions between the 2. I'm building a 20.5 70s cruiser. 454 .30 over w mild pop ups which are supposed to be 10.5:1 comp, 049 heads, marine cam, 750 vac sec, Ebrock Air gap, logs, jacuzzi WJ. I have an MSD dizzy and box thats in good shape. But I'm leaning towards installing an HEI only because if I have an issue I can go go Vatozone and pick up a module, cap, or rotor. In this application would I be hurting performance? Would I even notice? Which is more reliable? Having a hard time deciding. Thanks.

Thanks for the info I appreciate it second question is. I have an A impeller it's that mostly out of the hole my last boat had a AB impeller I'm trying to remember the differences this boat isn't a big house power boat only about 400 house 455oldsOnly difference is your motor will spin 150 rpm more on the top end with an A/B.
