Got it ready to go to Mead in the am. Who needs crack when you got a jet boat.

Are your old rods totally trashed to where you couldn't get weights off of them? They will probably be pretty close, but could also be way off. I would at least see if the piston/rod assembly, in the event of pressed pins, were close. Could pick up a cheap digital postal scale. Just a suggestion.

Cheers,

Joe

Pretty excited, I'm a river virgin! Wish me luck!!

While you got it lifted, consider installing an oil drain hose and if necessary, a head-mounted remote oil filter, or at least one that has the filter opening up so it doesn't spill when you remove it.

Be safe and have fun.

Joe

Thanks Joe! Yeah thats the plan, I have a drain hose on order so hopefully it gets here in time.... If not I plan on pulling the motor in a few months for a dyno session anyway so ill put the hose on then.
