need help again what would be better? a cam driven water pump or an electric water pump

« **Reply #36 on:** April 10, 2012, 07:56:38 PM »

I run a cam driven pump. I haven't heard of anyone running a electric pump in a vdrive. Cam driven pumps can be fixed on the river an electric one can not.

« **Reply #37 on:** April 12, 2012, 02:38:27 PM »

cam driven pump it is then. ok today i got bored and since i dont i have a computer i thought i would try my playstation video editing software and a made a video out of a few of videos and pictures i have on my playstation.

bed armor? wtf...

either gelcoat it...

or gelcoat the bilge area and carpet the rest...

or take some veneer or vinyl carbon fiber type material and gelcoat over it.
