If you had a pick of any 1970 - 1990 hull to build a boat from the ground up.  What would be the top three hull's.

Hands down a Daytona, TPR then a Placecraft.

Jet Pumps / Re: Shoe but NO ride plate
« on: May 27, 2014, 08:03:54 PM »
The shoe doesn't only load the pump but also adds lift. When you add lift the boat needs something to rock back on. That's where the ride plate comes into play. If you are going to cut the intake for the shoe why not do the plate too. It's only going to help. Especially with that big boat and more power.

Also, my boat has cav plates and a shoe and ride plate set up.  :screwy: :screwy: :screwy:

Last year they were out and my buddy calls and said not to be drinking before I launched, cause tthe water cops were all hanging out there. Shit they didn't even look at me. They were rousting all the seadooer's. AWESOME!!!!!!  Hell they even got a guy because he didn't have his CF numbers on right, lol.
Not to put a damper on the weekend boys, cops launched out of McIntyre yesterday. 😞😞😞😞😞

Going by just the last couple years there's a good chance it will be low on Friday, but will come up Saturday morning.


Sent from my iPhone using SoCalJetBoats mobile app
Friday is always the low day due to the dam holding water back for the farmers.
I always check here for water flow before i go out

http://www.usbr.gov/lc/region/g4000/hourly/rivops.html

Normally the flow that comes out of parker matches the flow out of the dam above us. 10,500 is a good water day. anything more is high is hell.

I've got a mild 396 steel crank forged internals with a Victor Jr. Intake & a Holley 750dp. 
I need to do the plugs, is it worth getting "good"/"perormance" plugs especially if I'm still tuning my motor & what's a good plug gap?


Sent from my iPhone using SoCal Jet Boats

I always run auto light plugs. what kind of ignition are you running? I would say around .35 to .40 is fine. i think most come out of the box at .45

Engine Mechanical / Electrical / Re: Carb Tuning Baseline
« on: May 19, 2014, 04:24:22 PM »
I have a standard 454 chevy with a demon 850cfm single with vac secondaries. Timing is at about 34.

Originally I just threw the carb on it and ran it. It would choke itself out as soon as the secondaries opened up. Turned out it had 67's in the front, 75's in the rear.

I bumped it up to 80 front / 81 rear to see if it would fix the issue, which it did, but now its running super fat.... tons of exhaust soot all over the transom. I havent even bothered pulling a plug to read it as im sure they are black as night.

I dropped it back down to 75 front / 75 rear...I havent ran it yet, but im getting sick of messing with it......is this a good baseline to go with on this setup? seems like im all over the place and this might be a good 1/2 way point.
Is the timing locked out brad? i would start with the 75's

« on: May 19, 2014, 12:44:22 PM »
Do you run synthetic? Does a roller cam still need the extra zinc like a flat tappet does?

Ive ran the racing oil since i built the motor in 2011

http://www.jegs.com/i/Lucas+Oil/639/10378/10002/-1?CAWELAID=1710569222&CAGPSPN=pla&catargetid=230006180000514867&cadevice=c&gclid=CLmSmrzfuL4CFceCfgodqSwA4A

But for a normal deal i would say the synthetic would be just fine.

Engine Mechanical / Electrical / Re: Thoughts on Wet vs Dry headers
« on: May 18, 2014, 10:23:35 PM »

Hey guys I just got done polishing my headers and I put 4gs into my engine this year. Haven't had it out yet, but I'm debating whether to run my headers wet or dry...I want to run them wet cause its safer and theres not as much heat in the engine bay but I'm having a hard time justifying doing it know that I might suck some water in and blow a valve or worse. Does anyone have a good system set up for wet headers? I have the lines and the bassett t-valve with spring and ball but I still dont think that shuts the water pressure off fast enough from when you take your foot off the gas to when the ball in the valve cuts off the flow. It seems like there no way of getting rid of that lag..does anyone have a solution for this? Thanks!

Solution. Run em dry.
Depending on the lift and duration of your cam, that will tell you if you can run em wet or not. I was told anything over 550 lift was a no no for wet headers.
