If I know Brian, the motor will never even know the difference
Amen, I'm guessing that's in Az.
On another note, did you get that blower motor together yet ?
Danny
Ok I gotta unload this thing. I got three boats and no where to put them or time to work on 'em. It's been cleaned and stripped. Floor wasnt too bad after cleaning. Prolly 90% complete, needs paint and assembly. Comes w/ 'glass seats and BBC w/ tunnel ram. Make offers Boys...maybe we can auction it off....rafel?
just using an existing thread for a new request.

Duke, you have a boyfriend?
Anyhow, I wouldn't suggest the braided upgrade. It costs a ton of cash and is really not necessary. If you have dirty tanks that can't be easily cleaned, I would use the braided line money to buy a fuel filter that spins on like an oil filter. 30-75 micron. Replace it more often than you need to and go have a great time with the boat.
As for the float, smack the bowl adjuster a few times with the plastic end of a screw driver. If that doesn't fix it follow Nordies recommendation.
I dont know, The stupid Brendella tunnel is still sitting in the garage on a cart and I dont want to work on it. There are a few different things that might show up around here though.
No that was in the dana at big river on fathers day..
The new hull is stripped !!! Bare, nothing!!! So i got tons of work to do! I just ripped the pump out of the dana so i dont even have a working boat right now!!!
My chevys coming after ur ford marc!!!
Ray, I do know to check them often. I run a solid roller in the race boat and go through them sometimes twice a day......and go through them once a weekend on the southwind....maybe more if they are coming lose. I havent had them come loose on the southwind since I put the crane golds in there.
i run a solid on the southwind because its what came with the package deal when i got the heads from Brock. The 990's were set up (springs n all) by claysmith for the solid cam..it was a combo a customer of his ordered but then backed out....then i came in and bought it. ....so I just stuck with it. yeah, its a PITA to have to go through lifters on a purely recreational roost thrower, but it works for now.
btw - checking them hot is the correct way to do it. try doin it between heats while reaching around hot headers. good fuckin times right there buddy.
I don't know that the iron heads will grow as much as aluminum,, so you may only need .002". I think the most important part of valve lash is keeping them even across all 8 cylinders, and checking frequently enough to know if a valve may be a problem in the valve train.
Ray u must not have worn your helmit last night and hit your head lol
Gotta admit, GREAT Mini-day motor though! 
"
don't you usualy think like that ray? just saying.... it would be diffrent
yeah I am anxious to hear how that motor set up works, and it would look way cool in that sst. As for me I am chomping at the bit to het my hands on a hondo t deck that my gel coater has.its sitting on the wrong trailer and the owner has abandoned it so now I am playing the waiting game on the lein. it will be getting a blown something in it. Oh well good luck on the sale of the Sag and Pickle. Oh and I sold those OT pipes so no need to keep your ears open for buyers

I'll check and see if he's still around doing it tomorrow, but he mostly does Bimini's. I don't ever tow with a cover on, but he still folded and triple stitched everything, set it up with D rings on all the seams so I easily could if I ever wanted to. (I hate those plastic snap lock strap deals, lemme use a bungee or a ratchet strap on it). I think he only charged me like $250 or so, and was a deal at that, VERY high quality!
