The slaves are supposed to be down here this weekend to get some more chit done. I'll dig up some pics of the progress thus far. It has been ahwile since it seems everything  own needs some love,    .

Well HD, as long as your just asking for one of the necessitys of life (food, shelter, blower motor), consider the check in the mail. 

We'll discuss this, but Proppys just about got it right!

Tony, Aquaholic, has a set I sent him so he could steal the snails of 'em. They're yours if he still has them.

Here's the closer pics of the manifold I scored. Should outline the differences. This is a standard BDS BBF blower manifold, nowhere near as slick, strong, or low profile, as Fantasy's. Had he lowered the price on me that much a couple months ago, it'd be MINE instead of this one!!! It is a sweeter deal, and add an intercooler on top of his...........







That last pic shows the peaked floor that eliminates puddling of fuel when operating at idle or part throttle. Fantasy's manifold has this feature as well.

Show me even one Chebbie blower manifold with this feature and ask HDRider what it means.........(Stuck on a lake with a blown seal off the pop-off valve due to a backfire when lifting)

I've spotted a few Rangers for sale, never got the opportunity to really check one out though. Ones I've seen all seem to be Sleek splashes or using old Sleek molds. As far as the layup, I'd have no idea. I know the Sleeks are layed up very well, it would stand to reason even a reputable 'Bass boat" company that thought enough, and invested enough, to copy from, or use molds of tried and true formulas, they would have laid them up well.

Good luck with it!

I don't think you were asking too much, I just managed to score an incredible (and really weird, unforseen) deal in the midst of all this! Limited audience? well, that MAY be the case.

BBF fans, THIS is THE manifold if you want max performance from a blower, particularly with A460 heads. BDS doesn't even make it anymore, let alone polished, but it's their "race" version of what they make today, which is completely diffferent and I'll post pics of why the difference this week.

Ray

Thanks Ray!

I needed to update my siggy anyways!    You're alright man...

GT

Gee......thanks.........I think...........

Apparently in 1872, the Arabs were a bunch of goat f*ckers... 

Then later, in 1873, the British settled for ugly women, and screwed them with goat parts on their "bangers"...

GT

LOL! Ain't it so though? I mean, the cream of the crop from the British are, what, Kiera Knightley and Elizabeth Hurley? I see more than that 10 times over just those two in a few hours around town here, Vegas or in SoCal.............. 

But yeah, were I an Arab, I'd take my chances with the goat. At least you can see it's face.............................

Ray

I'm really partial to these Hondo's recently! Sweet looking sled there! 

Ray
