The New boat has a Berk JE pump, blown engine, yet complete. New heads, intake, cam, assoted other hardware. I MAY be able to salvage the engine. Won't know until it gets here and I get it ripped down. For now, parts from it are going on the engine for the Saguao, re The flywheel, the fuel pump, the oil pan, etc. The engine I bought was built for street/strip, so no marine stuff. Then I Have to evaluate what I gotta do to put Moo back in the water. And it will, we May sell it, but it's gonna be in the water. My best guess from everything this guy told me and my gut instinct is, it's a very salvageable engine.

My concern is, I beleive the Saguaro Hull is better than the SleekCraft. So the High HP engine is going there. If I'm wrong, let me know.

Well, i DON'T Call him Bahnerboy, for one, lol.  He deserves more respect than that and has been a wealth of info and advicde for me. Hopefully he doesn't find offense in my jokes, but that is just my way.

What diff does it make? One or the udder? lol. Gonna leave this one alone for now I think. Once it ghets here I'll pull the engine and see how bad it is. Other than the Bassetts, it's complete, so if it's not hurt that bad, I may actually have it on the water before the Saguaro. To answer your question, I think both may make the water this spring. Spending money like I had it, lol, but can always do the 2sav thing and sell the only running boat I have, lol.

Lol, I KNEW you guys would never let this go, Promises Promises not to laugh, lol

Seriously, Cindy was a priority pre-school teacher, meaning she taught special needs kids. Kids that were on feeding tubes, in wheel chairs to severely autistic (Kinda like me, lol), and the Moo thing came up, she INSISTED on naming my Springer Spaniel Moo. That came from when I hooked her school up with a special Kid's Workshop at my Home Depot, then I got roped into reading to one of her classes during their "Circle time". I read one of the Moo books, the one about Halloween. Funny stuff. I was laughing and getting into it so much she made me do it quite often, and it always involved those Damn Moo books. They're so funny to read as an adult, and if you read them to kids, you automatically try to "Get into it" and it gets funnier, lol. Hence I couldn't say no to this boat, lol

Honestly though, I think I see why 2sav has so many projects, cheaper to buy the cow (Can't beleive I SAID that), than to piece shop sometimes, And you want to see them all back in condition, a vicious cycle.

OMFG!!!! NOW I get it, 2sav, tooo f***ing funny.

Actually the Saguaro is progressing nicely, it's at a friends house, a 'glass pro, works cheap (Beer and supplies), then it's going to a buddy of HIS that's going to paint it for the cost of supplies, then I gotta in the meantime finish up this engine I got for it, BTW, anyone got a 460 marine pan and pickup they want to part with? don't feel like spending $500 for a shiney Milodon when all it does is hold all this dirty, filthy black crap. Still have to ship the jet to Tom, then I figure by march I gotta figure out how it all came apart. Then the interior, hoping I can hit up Lucky Stiff for a start on that tho.

The Saguaro's far from a dead deal, though, it's at a friends house, he's a 'glass pro and cheap (Works for supplies and beer). Once it's done there a buddy of HIS is going to paint it for the cost of the paint, then ship the jet to Tom. THEN  I gotta get it back and start remembering how it all came apart. As for now, I have to finish it's engine, (Yeah, I got one for it), speaking of which, anyone got a Marine 460 oil pan and pickup they can spare?, and get the trailer gone over, wired correctly and painted. It should be ready by early summer, I hope. The engine for it is wild, far wilder than I originally wanted, but that's how these things grow.

Dunno who that is, all I know is I needed new exhaust for mine, as the aforementioned snail was cracked, and really wanted OT headers anyway, got a smoking deal off E-bay from this guy for pratically brand new Bassetts, complete with lines and Aeroquip hoses, etc.  Then the conversing started. He is from Cali, and the boat's gonna be delivered sometime week after next.

You guys ever hear of the Moo books for children? lol

lol well, yeah, I guess so. Started out buying headers from the guy, next thing you know he's pulling out double pumpers, cables, steering gear, all sorts of stuff. Seems he had some clown build up the 460 in it only to have it blow up on it's maiden voyage, so he said f-it, and was trying to part it out. Before the conversation was over he said well why don't you just buy the whole thing?  Then he showed it to me and we hashed out a price. :screwy:

I didn't take any pics of it yet, still not at my house. Buy you guys gotta swear not to laugh at the paint job, it's neat! And it's not yellow, but has similar meaning to us. lol I'll see if the guy can e-mail pics of the thing.

Jet Pumps / pump ID
« on: January 15, 2009, 08:04:08 PM »
Might be a silly  and dumb a** question, but can anyone post pics of how to tell the difference immediately from a Jacuzzi, Panther, Dominator or Berk from a pic. For some reason, in my search and destroy for parts everyone wants to sell me another boat. I never had a boat before this one, and now it seems I may well end up with multiples that need work. The deals are pretty good. Sound familiar anyone?? Some of them honestly, look damn nice compared to the money pit I found myself in, but I'm kind of dead set on Berk pumps, don't ask me why, I don;t even know anything about them.
