Ok so basically I ended up with a 1983 tahiti that came from "blue 2 skip 2 me" as all of you know...the boat isn't much of a project, but I guess you can say I'm "making it mine" type of deal...last summer I kind of ran it they way skip "luckie stiff" set it up...which there was nothing wrong with the way he set it up, but some bolt on type of stuff...to start I bought the polished intake off of sam it was a weind stealth polished intake...then me and boost "brian" made and exchange and I ended up with a better dizzy...and this week I been wroking on the machine gun kelly stringers by plugging the holes...I know I know no pics...I will try to get this taken care of by sunday...also skip came through big on some ski tows...he said I half to give him head for which is cool, but I'm really starting to feel it by working on a boat again...I'm hoping by sunday I can be  carpeting the boat...more pics to come have a good evening guys...also more to come on holley rebuilding and the 180* out on the dizzy...guess I need to quit drinking and being a mechanic

Uh, you can still be a mechanic if ya quit drinkin....I think. You guys drink alot of beer, I watched a guys dad years ago drink himself to death at 43.

Lets see some progress ?? where the Pics ?

x2

sorry guys about the night time pictures i told you i keep goin gtill dark...just an fyi i carpeted the stringers and center floor and bed linered the outside area...and some new eye candy on the motor...and i have a ton of chaos going on in the photos as well maybe ill clean up tomorrow and get some daytime photos...but then again my dad is in the hospital from an atv crash so ill probably be hanging with him...he has a torn shoulder and 3 broken ribs...one rib punctered his lung and i guess deflated it and bruised the piss out of it...and the dr says he still has alot of blood draining from it as well...i know he will be ok but i am sure he can use the company

Hope your Dad has a speedy recovery.

wish the best for your dad...i had a friend that had a bad mishap at glamis.  i guess there is a problem with going "too big."  from the take off to where he landed was 193ft.  any way...nice work on the boat.   im new on here but i hope to get to know all of you guys the best i can via the internet.

Hey Pooper Scooper,

You REALLY need to send me those seats for some new covers, really. I'll hook you up. You're like the cross dressing son I never had. 

Damn Nordy
with that carpet looking that bad man i would be ashamed of myself showing pics like that. J/K. and just giving ya a hard time.
looks good. nice job on everything man. but i gotta say it ..... more pics man. lol.

Have your polisher take those seats out and send them to me.

no freaking carb on the motor to start it...i out it back in where the old one was pointed...but you know how that works for me  ill let you know later this week...powdercoat will be done by tuesday so everything should be back together late next week...then comes deatailing and some other misc stuff..

started kicking around the idea of taking the balancer pulley and the alt and have them coated its the ugliest thing left on the motor...maybe ill paint it for now and clean up the altenator with some fine steel wool, just to get that white barnicle shit off of it...the pully and fan are really really bad...

Todays frustrations of owning a jet boat

This all started by purchasing a polished intake manifold, and then you gotta get gaskets, and then you gotta install it, and then you realize how blinged out it is, and then your like shit the boat needs some loven, and then you do carpet, and then your like maybe since I'm upgrading the intake maybe you should upgrade the ignition, and then you get another ignition, and then you realize the carb needs rebuilt, and then you finally turn a corner, and then you put it all together, and then NO SPARK, and then you pull the dizzy, and then you drop the oil pump rod, and then you hear a clunk in the bottum of the pan where the rod landed, and then............GET DRUNK!  Something is up with the dizzy no workey I'm probably doing something wrong though

I'm going to bed
