Hey BP, switch your valve covers around and vent from the front the way they are now will vomit oil mist out the exhaust upon take off....

Looks awesome.

Damn who all has these valve covers?!

Guess you can't beat the price. Go Ebay!

Got it started today, if I could figure out how to post a video I would show you guys.

I think you have to resize your image of your photos because your image is to big that probably why you can't get it to post. Original size is probably (1024x768) you want to resize it down to (640x480). Meaning the first set of numbers is document size and the second set of numbers are e-mail size. Not to be a smart ass, but this is what I have to do to most of my pics before I post. After I resize it, it works all the time. Oh and by the way SWEET ride. Very clean.

Digging your hoses and routing!

Very different!

Only time I ever saw that stuff used was on a beer bong!

Thanks for all the compliments guys... I have one more thing to do before it is in the water. I have to make a throttle cable mount. Hopefully I will have it out this weekend.

Took the boat out this morning, early am. Ran great! Got some little things to fix, small transom leak at the adapter, bilge pump not working, alternator not charging.

« **Reply #116 on:** August 08, 2011, 06:59:32 AM »

Well guys, I took the Tahiti out again and this time it worked much better. I made a tool (device) for the purpose of adjusting Ignition timing on the fly. It worked great, we picked up 200 RPM. Got the Bilge pump and Alternator working... Wasn't very difficult, I just had to plug in ALL the wires, lol. As for my leaky transom adapter, what sealer do you guys use for this?

« **Reply #117 on:** August 08, 2011, 09:32:16 AM »

Looks great John, now you have no reason not to go to Willow with us! I used just simple marine sily-cone for my transom adapter when I did my bowl swap a few weeks ago. I put a thin layer on each side of the gasket, a little on the hardware (or they will leak like a SOB), and a nice clean bead around the outside @ the transom , and @ the bowl worked nicely.

Except for the freezing water at Willow, lol!

What brand of silicone did you use and where do I buy it?

« **Reply #119 on:** August 08, 2011, 04:15:12 PM »

Honestly? Don't laugh, I got it @ Wally World for 10 bucks. They have two versions, a removable and a permanent silicone. Get the removable. I don't remember the brand, but it works really well

« **Reply #120 on:** August 08, 2011, 06:12:32 PM »

Awesome!! Thank you

« **Reply #121 on:** August 13, 2011, 07:16:46 PM »

Took the boat to Willow Beach today. Ran pretty good. Found a few more bugs... Had a great day!!
