Could very well be, or not.
Just the basics guy, we're trying to help, not make fun. 1 step at a time and you should have what seems to be to be a 70 mph or better boat. We're just challenging each other right now with the best quips.
Check the cam timing, IMHO, THAT is going to be you culprit. No finger pointing, but I once timed a 340 Chrysler damn near 180 degrees out of phase and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't start. Well 7 bent valves and a thousand bucks later, learned my lesson.
Just saying, we all do it.

AT the risk of repeating myself, if you hit 70's with the same engine, then had a better pump built and put in, by TOM, AND changed the timing gears. Where would be the weakest link?
Am I repeating myself? Dude, check the timing, i'm telling you it's off. Then check the hand hole in the pump, could be a rope in it or something, but I doubt that. Finally, unless you're pushing somewhere in the neighborhood of 600 hp or so, at THAT rpm, the impeller you chose is wrong. But it should still push you well into the 60's.

Kudos GT!! Exactly what I was leading to, but have a GOOOOOD Geek do it, lord knows what the first geeks may have done.
IN the files on his screen shot he is only gonna see assembly code on the new HD. if he opens those files. Or see "Unknown file type" or " cannot open file" errors. Someone has to recover the original files on the original hard drive. Many good programs out there to do it, or can help with it, but I would not recommend them unless you know very fool well how to use them.
Worse comes to worse, you can go through the code and at least pick up pieces of Word documents.

NO problem yet Tom, all is not dead. Just get the old HD before those turds lose it, hopefully you already have it. Then try a different data doctor and show him the Screen shot you posted. A good one should be able to link all or most of the files back together again.
Word of advise in the future bud, sounds like you have a TON on info on the thing. I mostly use my LT, but is linked to the DT. The DT has a second hard drive that was used only by Cindy and I to back up files to. The LT I'm using now Cindy bought a few months ago, and it's a replacement becuase the first one lasted 2 weeks and took a dump. She had Soooo much info from teaching and downloads it wasn't funny. Got the new one, and in a couple of hours all the info was back. Add a second HD to the desktop and configure it in your bios to park after like 5 minutes of inactivity. Once in a while, every week, month, backup the entire hard drive to it. They don't make these things to last like they used to.

Yes, The hard drive saved info into bad sectors, and that is what they retreived. Basically, incomplete files. Information is really not saved logically in a computer.
Yeasr ago, they used to "Map" hard drives and give you a list of the bad head/cylinder combinations when you bought them. When you formatted them, it was a manual affair using programs from DOS like Hsect, etc where this information was used. Took hours to format a 10 megabyte hard drive.
Bad Clusters are information located in those areas. Not a lot you can do but a "GOOD" nerd should be able to save most of it, provided you insisted on keeping the original hard drive. You need a better geek.

You guys are gonna have to tell me. I'm just finishing up the engine for my first boat and am looking forward to meeting and boating with you guys. The "Moo", or udder distraction, is only needing me to do this part to be on water. I Think, lol.
Mead is 5 hours from me and I'll do it.
Dunno how many others committed from the PHX valley, but I know at least 1.

PS OMar, good post, yes, GYST.

Boat Racing / Re: Ideas on new type of racing
« on: January 20, 2009, 07:56:38 PM »
This brings to mind something I thought of a couple of years ago.
They have Senior PGA golf, Senior LPGA golf. They talked about Senior Baseball and football leagues, probably with flags.
Why not Senior Nascar?
Think about it, call it the Depends cup! Toss these old ex-racers in Buick Park Avenues and LeSabres, Ford Crown Victorias, and Chevy Caprices, and limit the race to 50 Miles. No in car hydration system, but an incar Cathater or colostomy bag could be susbstituted.
The track could be littered with School crossings, bus stops and Lane Restrictions. The Pace car could either be a golf cart or a Jazzy Scooter, and Pit Road would include a CVS drive-Thru.
Just my .02

First, and Tom will chime in here eventually I'm sure since he built and installed the jet, Sounds to me like you have way too much impeller for the HP you have.IN addition to other issues, ie cam timing. Dunno where your HP curve is at, but if you plan to run the boat at 6000 RPM , and that's where it's max HP is at, and you have, say 500HP, you should be running a C impleller.
This is info I gathered from Tom, correct me if I'm wrong guys.
IMHO You have bigger issues in that timing set change tho.

You'd be surprised! Best thing is get the cam degree'd. Willing to agree with GT, sounds like cam timing out quite a bit. If cam timings out, lord knows what ignition timing is adding to the mix.

Lol Tom, were I in his position, given the ethnicity and his name 
(Wasn't it Dana carvey that likened his campaign to "Vote for Charles Manson Hitler"), I would be wearing kevlar underwear under kevlar everything.
Does make me wonder though. Spending the millions on that party, giving the banking industry all that money that should have gone to us, and NOW how many billions is it gonna cost us to keep him alive?
I didn't vote for him either, I only know 3 people who did, that, in my estimation, makes a roughly 3% majority. Maybe I hang in the wrong crowds or everyone I know are rednecks??
