Please share the details on your put setup. If you had to do it again, would you go the same route?
I am trying the Harbor Freight Oil Extractor: http://www.harborfreight.com/6-1-4-quarter-gallon-oil-extractor-46149.html (http://www.harborfreight.com/6-1-4-quarter-gallon-oil-extractor-46149.html) but, as with most HF products, I am not entirely stoked with the results. Killed my POS Kobalt air compressor, now upgraded to a 10HP, 3-phase, 180 gallon Kellog-American... Just waiting to get my electric rolled over to 3-phase. If I can’t hold out any longer, I will swap out my Baldor 10HP single phase motor, but it uses twice the amps.
It would be nice to have something that doesn’t require shop air to run.
Thanks,
Joe

It's a 12 volt pump that is wired to a switch and has a barbed fitting where the drain plug goes and a hose to the pump then a hose with a threaded barbed fitting with a cap so you push the caped hose out your drain in the transom in to a bucket and turn the pump on then I run a quart or two more after its empty to get the old out

Well I'm one step closer to getting motor out and putting new Dooley 10qt Pan on... In order to make sure my dipstick would read correctly I set the pan up in the garage at a slight angle, close to how it will be sitting in boat, and filled it with 9qts of water. Luckily it landed right at the "add 1qt" mark. Added the 10th and it reads perfectly👍 what a relief! Also, I got the temp sensor installed along with a Fumoto Drain Valve. After that was done I started priming parts to the water/fuel seperator set up and will paint tomorrow.

True it doesn't peel that easy if you aren't rubbing on it constantly with your foot. I'd throw some regular clear on it. Doesn't have to be their clear. It'll also give you more of satin look rather then the primered look.

I bought 4 new rims and tires today. I went up in size from 205/75/14 to 205/75/15. The trailer drags it's ass on every driveway. I wanted a little taller tire to get off the ground. I paid $345 for all 4 tires mounted on rims. I also changed my oil. On Saturday, my wife and I drive up to JetBoatPerformance and drop it off. We are getting a new Dominator style energizer pump with a hydraulic pd. we are very excited to hit the water this year!

Thanks! I wanted to do a candy green but I didn't feel like doing the two stage stuff so I went with this one. It's actually pretty close with the metallic flake. The only blemishes are in the front motor plate where the bead blaster found some pits in the aluminum. Oh well, at least it's way under there and you can hardly see it.

How are you going to control the flow rate without the infinite adjust-ability of the gate valve? Why do you think that valve was there since the 70's? ;)

The gate valve was frozen I couldn't open it, it was set to run at the river needles area with cold water and now I run it at Elsinore and other local lakes too and it gets real warm while idling the no wake Zones

IMHO you should have installed another gate valve. For the record, the hole in the fitting coming from a factory Berkeley hose fitting is only a little over a 1/4" in diameter, you just made it over a half an inch, that has the flow capacity of almost 6 times....

(562) 277 3431 or explain alittle further in what you mean about my set up, I copied exactly what was on it before except used a ball valve and I haven't set it where it goes yet waiting to get in on the water. But if a gate valve is a better approach I'm totally open to that, I just want to be able to open it all the way up if I'm cruising thru a channel or something.
If some other people have some other ideas?

The gate valve that was on there is pretty much a set it and forget it deal...
The ball valves biggest issue (again IMHO) is the lack of adjust-ability on the extreme low end of the flow requirement.
If you are trying to control the engine temperature to be constant at all times, I am afraid you are totally wasting your time.
Proper water flow setting is tricky for some folks.
There are a dozen plus threads on this very subject, but here are the highlights.
The water temps on most jets with the open type cooling systems like you have will run at idle about 150*F, then at higher RPM will typically drop to about 120* or even below.
The valve is there to reduce and adjust flow, which, despite what many will tell you, will reduce the overall pressure. If you run that valve at 100% open at anything over a fast idle, you will more than likely blow an intake gasket and fil the engine full of water on the oil side.
The typical Berkeley jet pump can move enough water to support 2,000 HP+, so to say you do not need to reduce the flow by a lot is ludicrous.
The gate valve has the advantage of the ability of being adjusted between 0% and 100% in tiny little increments. It is also equipped with a packing nut that can be tightened to keep it in place.
A ball valve adjustment is not "linear", meaning the valve from 90 degrees (closed) to approximately 75 degrees could very well still be totally closed. Adversely the ball valve is virtually "wide open" from about 40 degrees all the way to 0 degrees. This means you really only have 35 degrees of valve stem motion to play with...
For an idea of how little that is...
[attachimg=1]
Versus the 3,600 (not a typo) degrees of the ten turn gate valve...
Make sense?

Yes it does and I'll switch it back to a new gate valve, I just want to be able to set and leave it, but also be able to open it quickly if I know I'm going to be idling for a while. IE going thru the channel or at pirates where the water is in the 80's and my temp starts heading north of 200, thank you for the advice I think the best way will be to count the turns from closed to where I set it so I can return it to where my "normal" running position is.
Sent from my iPhone using SoCal Jet Boats
A properly set up system should be able to idle until you run out of gas.... Literally hundreds of hours. They typically get to about 150 degrees and stabilize.

Got the ride plate, steering extension, all the stainless hardware, everything :thumbup: To top it off, Tim also traded me my transom adapter, for one that had been already been machined out and powdercoated for the slightly bigger diameter dom bowl.

Nice job stitching! I wouldn't even know where to start with upholstery. He'll I have shorts that are missing buttons, so I just pull the belt a little tighter.
I'm missing a cushion that blew out before I bought the boat. Tried to get one made for this trip and no one could get it done. Seems everyone is getting ready for the season and all the shops are busy.

Replaced the belt.
Was going to replace the water pump gasket, but found that the bolts were just really loose.
Checked the spark plugs.
Put the charged up battery back in.
Then noticed, HOLY SHIT :banghead:, a freeze plug was sitting under the pan. So bought some new plugs and now just praying nothing is cracked. :sly:

I did a little research before I decided to paint them because I had the same concerns but after reading some other forums people had good success following the directions on the back of the can that states for enhanced chemical resistance to cure the paint by baking it at 200 degrees for 1 hour. So I did that and I guess we will see.
As far as prep not much. I cleaned the carb by boiling in water and lemon juice for about an hour and that seemed to work great. After that a little masking and spray a few coats. Cost was only $65 and that includes my 2 rebuild kits.

whats that black thing going to the carb fuel rail? it looks like its out of place.
Haha, I agree. Need to get a stainless line made. At least from the pump to carb

Pulled the motorJust curious here...how the hell did you get to the motor with that hoist? I mean isn't the boat and trailer not to mention the pump in the way? Took me the same hoist and 2 more guys from the motor slamming into the inside of my boat once the shaft came out of the pump...cause it was at such a bad angle. Next time I yank a motor out of a boat that's on a trailer I'm renting a backho from home depot lol. Coming out or going in. Would make life so much easier.

Looks good Nate. Just a little constructive criticism, can your upper plenum be turned around so that the carbs sit more level while on plane? Just thinking that that might cause some float level issues with the angularity of the engine combined with the angularity of the carb mounting surfaces.
Cheers,
Joe

Hey flushed, I think it may be an optical illusion...look at the line of the hull rim in the back round compared to the trajectory angle of the carbs and ram set up. It might just be me, or the picture but I think nates gonna be alright :) bitchen setup though! No disrespect intended at all flusher, you could be completely right and im just holding my phone at a bad angle lol ???
No disrespect also and I don’t mean to take anything away from Nate’s hard work. It is just a thought.
Indeed Nate put a lot of work into those carbs and I have great respect for those who wrench on their own, particularly those who pay close attention to the fine details. I just want the best possible outcome from his efforts.
The installed angle of his jet intake (~4 degrees for standard Berk) influences the installed angle of the engine for drive line angularity. Inherently, the aft end (the flywheel side) of the engine in a jet boat is lower. In this picture, it seems that the plenum is installed with the angularity of the carb mounting surfaces angling down towards the stern (thicker side forward). That combined with angle of the engine install will cause the front float bowls to be much higher relative to the rear float bowls. This may or may not cause a problem. He might have enough adjustability in his floats that this never causes a problem. However, if it does, it will manifest itself as a tuning issue in an otherwise good functioning carb. Ultimately, the carb angle should be level while on plane. If you take a look at any form of motor sports that uses Holley (and derivatives) carbs, great effort is made to make the carbs level at ride height. Manifolds are machined with an angle on the carb mounting surface (see red circle).
Again, not trying to take anything away from Nate and I mean no disrespect by stating my observation. Just thinking an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. riverrat, you could be completely right also, it COULD be an optical illusion. Or maybe I just looked at it out of the wrong eye (I can’t see out of one eye). :D In reality, I could not tell for sure unless I measured the angle of the carb surface and compared it to the hull planning surface (next to the intake). The angle of the carbs to the gunwale, deck, floor, etc. is irrelevant. Just my humble opinion.
Respectfully submitted,
Joe

It is just a thought.you know Joe I'm actually glad that we have this forum and we are all respectful enough to share our own opinions and in actuality I learned something I didn't even take into account... the angle of the dangle of the motor nor did I realize that you could turn the intake around 180 degrees. So I just wanted to say thank you for educating me and its duly noted for when I build my first jet boat. I can totally relate to the angle and how it will affect the floats because Im used to doing rock crawling and so forth.. So all in the end I hope nate gets his setup done correctly and had a blast on his boat... Its fun learning from you guys so once again thank you! :-)

Those snails gotta go....ot, dry preferably. And a blower right on top while you are at it...might as well. For get the ots if you are going blower throw some zoomies and alcohol injected...on second thought forget all that jet engine in a jet boat. That's your goal from now on.

Let me get the ceramic set up at the shop and I'll get done whatever you need man.

That's good to know. We got orange so hopefully not as hot as black (the standard color). Worst case scenario we lay a towel down. No biggy! The reason we decided to do that is because we could not find orange carpet anywhere. And we didn't want white or beige because it will get too dirty too fast. Carpets only seem to come in blues, black, maroon, white, and beige.

did he pick up that spectra on CL not too long ago eh? i saw it. two *HUGE* gas tanks, 3rd vent. trim tabs and laid up like a tank. if so, congrats! thats gonna be a sweet cruiser.He picked it up a month ago. Dropped a BBC in it and took it to elsinore today. Ran awesome. We think it could use a pump rebuild.

*thanks phil* also while messing with the boat I discovered that my quick release for my throttle cable that attaches to the carb linkage was hitting on my mount and stopping the carb from opening all the way!!! About 1/8 of wasn't opening. *bangs head* Had to notch it to clear but it's all good now!
which makes sense I used to run 5300ish rpm an it's been only hitting 4900ish.

Our boat hasn't been out for 4 seasons. My daughter ask if we had a boat she couid take to Parker for the 4th of July. Told her the Advantage could be ready. Primed the trailer last weekend, painted on Friday, wired on Sat, bunks and boat loaded on Sunday. It's practically a bare hull, so the next couple days for everything inside the boat.You're still a fockin stud Ron!

Kids are now 28 and 23. They we're raised in that boat, it's 25 years old. I don't worry about them doing something stupid. I'm more concerned about the idiots on the Parker strip. First day out and Vance had to fix a couple of small water leaks. Motor was blubering, ended up changing out the needle and seat on the secondaries. Seams ok now.

Did it happen when you first hit the key/ starter?
I told the kids to open the motor cover to check for fumes everytime before they start the boat.
Fire or explosens is the one thing that really scares me and I check for fumes everytime.

My boyfriend says no fuel leak. But he changed the oil yesterday, put 8 quarts new in and pulled the dippstick this morning and there's nothing on it. Strange... would that cause fire?Depending on what oil pan you have, 8 quarts might not show.

Thank u for that tid bit of info on the oil pan. He didn't take the size into consideration either. As for the fire a few possibilities arose so far. One being the valve cover on one side wasn't tightened and oil got on headers. And the second reason being that the oil filter was spewing oil. No catastrophic damage to be found yet

I've had oil spew out the breathers on the valve covers and catch fire on the headers.
Fire extinguisher powder sucks cleaning up off an engine.

whaat theres leeches at pyramid?!!? eek!Wasn't that bad. After I moved away from the grassy mud area, I only found one on me. I was talking to this teenage kid. He told me that he put his lounge chair in 2' deep water. Then he sat and dug his feet in the mud. After about 45 min, he said he didn't even realize it, but it looked like he was wearing leech socks when got up.

Yeah we always go to Blythe and hang out at So Cal Island, launch out of Mac!!!! We store our boats out there as well!!! Except my boat came home with me this time cause it's leaking oil again for the second time and it's only a 6 month old boat!!!! We are heading out to Aha Quinn for the performance boats deal on August 8-9. Maybe see you there. We will be in my boat

Holy god that boat is waaayy too fukin fast. Scared the shit out of me again... I have videos this time. A lot of me whimpering and cursing lol. Anyways brought the beast home this time. Still leaking oil just don't know where yet. O my god I hope I get used to this boat. I noticed that it flexes ALOT... is that normal?
sent from my ocean front property in AZ
Good to hear you had fun. Too fast is right where you want to be. You can grow into your boat easier than your wallet growing to fit your desire for speed.
Re the flex, I had a Regatta flat bottom that flexed so much that with your foot flat on the hull (no floor), you could feel the ripples in the water through the hull.
Cheers,
Joe

So I did not do a damn thing to the Hallett today. I modified my kitchen cabinets to accommodate a new refrigerator.
I will wash the sides of the boat and trailer on Sunday. Mechanically the boat should be OK.
Hopefully Danny will remember to bring my buffer to me on Sunday.
I got back from Texas on Tuesday from my Mom's funeral, life goes on.
I hope everything is good with all my boating brethren.

1) Found issue with no engine temp- Rehooked up lines correctly, (tee to water pump inlets, not to thermo housing as it was) and added gate valve
2) Installed some inline silencers, (what a freaking bitch, stiff hose does not like to make a bend)
3) Replaced front bunks, as one floated away last time out
Test Drive Sat afternoon, launched at Jack Smiths Launch (won't bring up the float regatta) So drove down to Needles.
1) Adjusted the gate valve to get some heat at a idle, kept adjusting till I got some temp running, boat seem to run better as well
2) AHHH - I can hear myself think! (yeah I run mufflers in my race car too!!) I am 80's head banger, so my hearing is going :screwy:
3) Ran up past AVI 2-3 mi and shut her down after idling for a bit to see where the water temp creeps up to.
4) Floated and ate some lunch. Fired her up and turned around and was cruzin back. HMMM water in my Ski locker! Water coming out of bilge.
5)Check engine compartment and OH NO! Water coming from somewhere
6) Found leak on main feed hose from pump, blew right through it, yeah the one I didn't change :banghead: (now getting a 2nd bilge pump) floated for a while to pump out water. Taped up leak (mental note to add hose to the spares box)
7) Mental note on the way back, Oil pressure is sure much higher, must be the water on the pan cooling it (oil is getting hot, adding a cooler)
8) Made it back but what a mess, pressurized water blew grease from jet all over the engine compartment. Previous owner greased like crazy but never wiped up extra.
Sunday morning got it all cleaned up and made notes so when the engine comes out, what is going to get changed/replaced over the winter-

got parts for carbs, installed , and "tuned"
scraped all the old grease from inside the wheels. need to replace seals
got new tires for the trailer. good thing i did.
replaced and rewired some of the trailer lights
cleaned electric fuel pump
replaced fuel filter
replaced some fuel lines. a hacksaw sucks at cutting steel braided lines. (or at least I do).
tried to redo some boat wiring, but figured it'll work for now and worry about it next year ;D.
I know some guys have done a lot more in less time, but I'm tired.

Don't wait till less than a week before you're supposed to take the boat out to do everything you've been putting off for the past year. :banghead:go to harbor freight tools and buy a 20 dollar 4" electric grinder then get the 4" cut off wheels to replace the grinding wheel you'll be cutting braided line like butter for under 30 bucks, also wrap the line in tape where you want to cut and cut right through the tape it helps keeping the line from fraying.

New decals arrived today..
Crank has a nearly 1/8th inch split on one section and groves all over it. One piston left side 3rd has massive dent.
The piston rod bearings had no oil holes in them so gonna research the differences between the two with and with out holes
Block looks great new crank and piston are soon to be ordered

After reading some of these posts, it's nice to see I'm not the only one who noticed their boat runnin warmer, among other things.Yeah i was runnin warm too, but im sure it was related to the t valve, since no water was exiting through the headers it ALL had to exit through the dump so it wasnt able to get out of the block as fast.

Thank you. I ran it on a Haas VF-1. Not quite big enough to stand a big block on end. :-( We don't have a 4th axis, so we need to get creative with setups.
I am in the market for a Haas VF-5. Also been looking at the Hurco. Possibly a good used mill. I really want to be able to do blocks.
11 axis?! That is badazz!!! The programmer/machinist needs to be equally badazz to step up to that kind of machine.

How much weight did you lose?
Funny you mention that, it ended up weighing exactly the same as a B bowl at 19.5 lbs. The B bowl has a much smaller suction flange which is where I took out most of the bloat of my G bowl. I won't know until I get a hold of another G bowl to compare. My tug boat won't ever notice the difference.
The Dominator bowls have a lot more bloat on both the suction side and the droop side. The Berkeley doesn't have the same bloat on the droop side, so the results won't be the same on my bowl.
My current Dominator lightning program removes 4.5 lbs. Ounces add up to pounds and pounds add up to E.T..

Thank you brotherman. Let me know if I can help.
As far as my tug boat is concerned, it's more a matter of I really wanted to do it and it might bring in a little work.
It's really more for boats like 000 were they are already at the limit and within 100HP of an NHRA pro-stock team. I have heard that pro funny cars and top fuelers are in the neighborhood of spending $1000 for each pound removed.

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

Pulled her in the garage today. Gotta lift the motor to change the oil and get her prepped for Laughlin next weekend!
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.

Thanks I had your headers done at Embee in May of this year. The boat had all the chrome so we went with chromex coating. They look nice but you still have to clean them with mothers. Will you be going to big bend next month for the socal meet. My wife liked that boat a lot.I'm hoping to be out there, we're goin this weekend for the sw regatta then planning a trip to Parker for October, hopefully I can squeeze big bend in too.I'm thinking about having mine redone this winter, there's a lil rust showin in a few spots and they were cut shorter after the coating so the tips at the ends are rusting a bit. There's quite a few changes I'll be making but for the rest of this season I'm happy with it👍

Sweet boat for sure. It is going to take a little work to get her back in the water but we will get her there. We were shooting for a local lake trip Thanksgiving weekend but it is looking like we may need a little more time.

Nothing tricky at all, it likes horsepower, proposes at low speeds, but the boat itself is bitchen, handles rough water good. I did the wiring on the engine compartment and helped out with alot with putting the engine in and plumbing it. If you know Drake he doesn't half ass anything he has, all top notch stuff

Really not looking forward to the silicone deal on my pump.i got lucky when I powder coated all my parts and pump and used Rv silicone it seams to have come off fairly easy. Mothers beers aged and I'm now done 👍

Just my opinion but you won't have the ponies to pull a serious droop. It is also my personal preference to never install a droop without a ride plate and properly tuned shoe .
Big waste of effort and hard earned cash . IMHO.
My feelings are that it needs the ride plate to rock back on and the shoe to keep things hooked up.
Keep it like it is until you see the 500+hp mark and lose the handling.

A shoe will require me to pull the intake from the hull correct?
Sent from my iPhone using SoCalJetBoats
Ideally, yes.
I will admit having done it with a fly cutter installed on a variable speed router. But the hull was flipped and it was not the "right" way to do it. ..

Yes. In my experience, a droop by itself helps in fewer areas it hurts. You would have to stick with the mini droop (the short style) .
With a ride plate, you have the advantage of the ride area to help the pump push against. Dramatically improving is effectiveness.
Just my opinions. I haven't seen your hull up close and personal like.

well the rule of thumb is 2 degrees for every 50. 9.9 degrees would be just fine for a 250. On our 150 tune up we ran Sinoco 110 with 4.7 degrees of retard with an NGK -8 gaped at 28. it was still on the fat side but not by much. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Jim is a cool guy. A little slow on building motors but his work is good. We just had him build our 438 sbc for my dad's camaro

What's the best way per cubic dollar to retard the timing? I currently have a 6M-2 box. I have been looking at the Programmable Timing Computer since it's a good price but it looks like you have to lock out your distributor. I really don't want to lock out the timing. So now I am leaning towards the Digital Retard Control or a 6 plus. Any other ideas?
Also, I want to use my claysmith fuel pump (14 to 16 psi) to fuel both the main fuel system and the nitrous fuel system. I am looking at running two fuel regulators and dead head them at 6/7 psi. I also want to run a fuel safety switch on the nitrous fuel system. For the electrical, I am going to run a toggle switch to arm the nitrous system then a microswitch set for full throttle and a nitrous push button. Yada Yada... So does this sound good?

I got this in the mail a couple days ago. I am going to add a 175 HP shot.Just went/going through the same thing. I was thinking of a msd-6425 ignition and a msd- 8970 retard. A magnafuel 500 pump running both regulators. And I'm still gonna have locked out timing and a crank trigger. I would love to go with the Msd 6520 and think this is the best dollar for dollar but I need to be able to retard atleast 11 degrees and the 6520 only is capable to retard 9.9 which would work great for your set up. And maybe run a seperate fuel pump for nitrous to avoid a possible lean out. That's my 2 cents.

Ok, so you have to lock out your timing on the msd- 8970 retard box too. If I am running a fuel safety switch to the solenoids (say set 6 psi) should I really have to worry about a lean condition?
Post by: capogniracing on January 28, 2015, 07:27:51 PM
Andy gave me a full lock out dizzy and with a safety switch I would think your good to go. Those clay smith are around 140gph right??

6 lbs is good for the safety switch. Start with retarding 2 degrees for every 50 hp shot of nitrous. That will give you a good base line for tuning. 👍👍👍👍

I don't like using the same fuel pump for both nitrous and motor but that's me. I use a Holley blue for the nitrous side and now a aeromotive with a bypass for the motor side.

I can see using a separate fuel system for racing but it just doesn't make sense to me for play. If you're running a safety switch then the nitrous won't fire unless you've got good fuel pressure. Maybe I will do some more homework and see what I find. I plan on running 78/78 fuel and nitrous jets with a 6°-8° retard. I am thinking about running one of my gunnel tanks with a mixture of 91/110 and just switch to that tank when I want to run a nitrous pass. Edelbrock says to use 92 octane pump gasoline or better with 175 HP shot.

What about when the fuel pressure drops as the demand increases after the N2O fires?
Post by: jyeager on January 28, 2015, 10:37:19 PM
That's what came with the kit and what Edelbrock suggests.>>?I agree. i used the normal squared jetting 2 passes and dumped down the fuel side because it was so fat. It killed my plugs The recomended jetting from Edelbrock and NOS is a fat tune up for sure. Also spark plug gap plays a good role in the tune. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Good. Fiberglass the bottom of the boat this weekend. Sanded the trailer found some cracks need to be welded back. It's a lot work in short on time. We been working on it every day after work. It should be painted next week and then we have to put the motor back together. I can't wait until it is all done. 😀. Crazy we all picked this winter to tackle big projects. I haven't even got to the trailer yet. To much sanding on the boat

Thanks. I just got some bad news my pump is no good. So nothing in my boat was good.
It really all depends on how things measure out, but I don't see anything that can't be detailed out.
Does it turn freely without any tight spots? Remember that the packings will put a lot of drag on the shaft.
Do you have any pics of the inside of the bowl? As long as there are no chunks missing, I'm sure it is not as bad as you think.
Regards,
Joe

The impeller has cracks everywhere. The shaft has grooves in it. The bearings are no good. It's just sad news don't really have the money to do it. I am waiting for my tax money to show up so I can build my motor and build my pump.
I see the cracks no (wonderful feature zoom is). I will try to find a good used thrust bearing and impeller if you are interested. I know we don't have any good used shafts.
Where are the grooves? On the bushing end? Bowl bushings can be sourced from McMaster-Carr, I will get the part number ASAP.
I'm not great with names, but I think it's Tom Peterson who does great work out of your area. I hate to see you stall after all that work.

Like I stated on FB, that is an easy one. We have fixed much larger problems than that on a river bank. Depending on how much HP you are planning, this is about a three or four hour job with minimal materials. Most of which can be found in good shape used. I would not stress this as much as you are.
The housing looks to be OK, the impeller is toast and should not be used, the shaft is easily replaceable and or can be repaired/sleeved, everything else is maintenance parts.
Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. A worn out pump is a silly reason to stop you from benefiting from all the hard work you guys did.
And I agree with Joe. Really don't look to abnormal.

Started working on removing the trailer so we can flip this big dog. Once wrong side up I can fix a bunch of rock bar damage from the previous owner and get everything back to square. Now that the intake is reset I can also blend the keel transition to feed the pump better. Probably shoot gel on the bottom before it goes back on the trailer.
That thing is bad ass

Wow, that is an ambitious project.
Please post more pictures of how you rigged the stern. What are you lifting from on the bow?
Thanks in advance.

Ambitious was actually purchasing this pile, it is bordering on insanity at this point but this is the disease that is jet boats. I took a few pointers from some of the old timers doing the big Schiada and Spectra flips. I built a sort of rotisserie as just about the center of the transom with some extra metal stock I had. Utilized a few of the existing holes in the transom and plated the interior side with aluminum for a backer to the hardware. Wrapped a chain around this mount twice to prevent it from slipping off and it allows for the boat to rotate around this point. I will reset the bow strap to one side instead of straight on to naturally roll the boat as we lift. At this point the boat is empty with only a sub floor installed, more pics to come as we actually roll it over.

So the chain steel that chain is wrapped around... just slides as it rotates? And your supporting the load with your two hoists only right?... No stands?
The steel chain slips around the steel tube that is welded to my "rottisserie" mount if that makes sense? Light pressure on either corner of the transom is all it takes to get this thing to rotate. Currently I have it supported on stands off the trailer as we create space for this to happen, once flipped it will land on these stand direct to the stringers for support. Placing it back on the trailer upside down doesn't set it at a good working height, stands will allow it to sit lower.

Will you continue to support the bow with the cherry picker?

Just for lifting, it currently sits on stands and bracing. The bow eye is backed by a 2"x 6" sandwiched by a 3/8" aluminum plate on the interior of the hull, this was the first step to ensure it could handle the roll and not blow out the bow.

I am debating doing a n almost identical hull, that's why I ask. Will it balance just being supported by the stringers or are you going to support under the bow as well?
Thanks again,
Joe

I think it will need something under the bow along with the stringer support. This thing is long from dash to bow, I don't think there will be enough counterbalance without something up front. I will cross that bridge when we get there, might be minimal weight at that point.

Went down to aero marine and got my resin and fiberglass for my stringers. Anyone in the Hemet/San Jacinto area that has done stringers before, if there is any way that you could come by and help me that would be great. I'm new at doing this kind of stuff and could really use the help. Thanks
Sent from my iPad using SoCal Jet Boats
I can't say I have done stringers yet but make sure you measure everything to keep it square and centered. Building a jig from the original dimensions could help locate the new stringers in the hull as well. Also, looks like you're using epoxy and not a laminating resin. You should make sure to sand those stringers real good before each layer of epoxy you build up and do not lay too many glass layers in one pour as they may not wet out properly. Epoxy is good stuff and this repair is going to be very strong if done right. Take your time and you will be fine.
Post by: JARVIS on February 18, 2015, 03:34:10 PM
Also, radius the top corners of the wood....glass doesn't like 90 degree bends. And for bottom where it meets Hull....you'll need a filer of some sort(not bondo) to create a radius from stringer to Hull. Plastic spoon is good enough of a radius.. you can use it as a tool.
As for epoxy itself....I'd mix it in a cup....(must be exact....VERY little wiggle room) then poor in a flat tray....little a paint tray. Epoxy gets hot...and in a cup the volume generates heat quick and you loose your pot. In the tray heat dissipates and pot lasts longer. Have a plan of attack as epoxy may too fast to do one whole side. It's possible. You gotta super quick and have a helper.
Keep us updated. ,

Welding some bungs in my oil pan for a temp gauge sender and two more 3/8npt bungs for external oil return lines(olds). Ive noticed most people drill and tap the actual head. I was going to just tap the valve cover does anyone see an issue with that?
It will allow more oil to remain in the rocker area before it starts to flow through the return lines in the valve covers. IMHO, it is best to put the return lines in at the lowest point to help facilitate efficient flow back to the pan as fast as possible.
I have seen some endurance engines with stand-offs installed in the return holes to intentionally cause the oil level to rise to submerge the valve springs for cooling before flowing through large holes at the top of the stand-offs. The stand-offs then had small holes drilled in the bottom to allow all of the oil to return to the pan after shutdown.

In that Olds article that was written in Hot Boat, Timinator gave the dimensions on where to drill down to the 16th.
I guess tapping the valve cover would work, you'd just have to have a higher level of oil in the v.c. to have the drain work.

And i almost feel like that would be better keeping the valve train submerged in oil. And i just have a weird sketchy feeling drilling holes into my heads haha

Keep in mind that it will put additional load on your valve stem seals. Not a huge ordeal on the exhaust side as the exhaust port is mostly pressurized. However the intake will need good sealing to prevent excessive oil consumption.

Can't say I know anything specific to Oldsmobile, I can only share what I have specifically been exposed to.
The other thing I neglected to mention is that I hate oil leaks. Having the oil level above the gasket sealing surface is an invitation for leaks.
Lastly, I try to consider airflow through the crank case. Pistons move at different rates as they approach and depart TDC compared to that of BDC. That creates a series of pressure spikes as the crankshaft rotates. That combined with blowby, the crank case has the tendency to have a lot of pressure that needs to be evacuated, which is typically vented through the valve covers. Filling the valve covers with oil will provide additional restriction to crank case ventilation. IMHO, I just don't feel that is the best way to go.
In a wet-sump, we put fittings, in both front and rear of the heads, located as low as possible. The fittings in the pan are welded in adjacent to the main caps on the driver side of the block. This locates the discharge on the side of the crankshaft where its rotation naturally helps to draw the oil out of lines. The opposite side and the crankshaft rotation will shoot oil back up the return. The vertical location is such that the return lines can not be covered by oil sloshing in the pan, even in a hard turn.

Well alls I know is that I completely filled the valve covers last summer which in turn filled the puke tank and spilled over half a quart of oil all over my transom. But that was running very hard. A lot harder than a olds should be ran. I figure this can't hurt anything and I might as well do it while I have the motor pulled. It's not a race boat by any means just cruise it and like to run it hard every once in a while

....and that just let jet thrust escape thru there instead of pushing the boat forward.....
ive heard it can also be used to control the amount of thrust going out of nozzle and thereby controlling how fast the boat goes. for bracket racing. can be set in a comp to do so automatically at a given point and how much to open valve. less things for the driver to worry about while making a pass.
i havent heard of it being used as a brake, if you will.
Post by: jyeager on March 06, 2015, 09:08:40 PM
:beer: :beer:on most systems there only a open and closed on the popoffs. There's really no way to Control how much the valve opens because it's ran on air. The most you will see it slow you down is 2 10ths if it's open from a to b. It's really used as a saftey device to get all that excess pressure out so we can let off the gas and not get thrown out of the boat because off the pressure/ hardware under the boat.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=knUneRfvY_o (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knUneRfvY_o#ws)
It comes down to this. when you pop the valve open water comes out of the clean out but it still loads the bowl up with pressure. Unless you unload the pressure "aka" drop a few 100 RPMs you will not slow down a whole lot.
I've got time slips in the hauler that show if you have the valve open from the tree to the end of 1320ft = a consistent 1/10th off of our e/t compared to a full track pass with the valve closed. I also use the valve to mess with hydros that come screaming passed me sometime. Hope they slam off the peddle. Lol!
Also in that video you can hear the boat on the 2 step for about 2 to 4 seconds mid run. Slowing it down even more.
That track sucks! It's always a battle for use there because the water is always messed up.

A fine wire wheel to get some of the heavy stuff off and rust around the weep holes and injection holes. Then a fine sand paper sponge.

Fired it up for the first time this season. Attempted to fire it last week but the gas was old. Added gas to the other tank and squirted some down the carb. Coughed on the first 2 cranks. Fired up in the third. the last time it ran was october. Now gotta get a new battery

Haha, ever since i built the boat, i never put a drain in the transom.
When we were coming back from the TPM memorial, it rained all night and all the way back from Cali to Vegas. Needless to say the bilge was completely full and dam near over flowing! So i figured it was about time to cut one in!

I was pleased after it sat for 7 years. Couple of small gasket leaks one valve cover and my center tunnelram gaskets. Cod t really fine tune with that going on but it ran very well. Found out the wife has a lead foot... Sweet

Then pulled out 99% of the wiring. found burnt up ones and bare wires and ones tucked away after the last rebuild.
then pulled the fuel line from the bow tank and removed the electronic fuel pump. question is should use the pump when running dual tanks? the block i bought has a mechanical pump should i stay with that?
also took a look at the bilge pump, is this a decent brand? should i step up the GPH?

Cutting an o-ring groove in my intake for the suction housing.
I hate gaskets!
do you have the o-ring custom made?
Post by: Flusher on March 31, 2015, 11:52:28 PM
do you have the o-ring custom made?
For this one, I will make my own custom o-ring using EPDM cord stock, rated for water and steam, from McMaster Carr http://www.mcmaster.com/#o-rings/=wk3gm4
Just cut it to length and super glue the end together using the recommended Loctite Instant Adhesive http://www.mcmaster.com/#7569a22/=wk3j9u
This groove ended up having a circumference of 35.887" which equates to an o-ring diameter 11.423" at its centerline. Had McMaster Carr stocked a 1/16" nominal, .070 actual diameter, o-ring that was close enough to that size, I could have manipulated the contour in Solid Works to match exactly.
If I had a low-profile intake, there would be more material to work with and I could have stepped up the cross-section diameter to 1/8" nominal, .139 actual diameter. McMaster Carr normally stocks 11-1/2" o-rings that have a diameter of 11.623 at the centerline. However, both the Berkeley suction housing and intake have thin flanges and I feel removing an extra .053 - .057 would reduce the thickness too much and develop cracks. It was exactly this reason why I chose to o-ring the intake rather than the suction housing.

Is this a performance upgrade or trying to improve on a common failure point?
I hate scraping gaskets!
In all seriousness, suction gaskets have a history of being a problem. Then there is the "cool factor." Now I can be cool and get all the chicks.

so sunday cleaned up the tanks i bought, still need some work.
Then pulled out 99% of the wiring. found burnt up ones and bare wires and ones tucked away after the last rebuild.
then pulled the fuel line from the bow tank and removed the electronic fuel pump. question is should use the pump when running dual tanks? the block i bought has a mechanical pump should i stay with that?
also took a look at the bilge pump, is this a decent brand? should i step up the GPH?
IMO, I would stick with a mechanical pump, less to wire, and less chance of failure, the electric will work just fine, just make sure you mount it as low as possible, and run a relay, also a Rule (red, white and blue pump) bilge pump is the better one, but as long as it works i wouldn't worry about it.

Probably would of blown up my new engine or for sure damaged it. Pretty irritated. I just had a hunch something wasn't right and I am glad I went with my gut. BUT with that being said I will have more peace of mind once it is fixed right, which I truly believe it will be this time. Cant put faulty parts on my new engine.

So, I spent the day before running the boat and getting it ready. The following day, I wet/dry vacuumed the bilge area, then used some towels and a hair dryer to get all the last remaining water and moisture out. However, by the time I got to the lake, I must have missed some areas because there was a huge pool of water that must have come up from under the carpet.
Honestly, I was very polite with the guy (Gerardo) who inspected the boat. He in return, was super-rude, short, and told me there was absolutely no way to stop the inspection once he began. He then handed me the quarantine paperwork and walked away. Unapologetic, stone-faced and simply walked back inside the ranger office. No explanation, no nothing.
Either way, 7-day quarantine. Oh well. Thinking of taking it to the Marina just to get my feet wet. I'd like to make sure it's ready for this season.

well lesson learned i guess eh.... when i took mine to lake perris, i stopped before getting near inspection area to check for water....sure enough....it was there. soaked it up with a towel. rest of boat was good. i made it thru no problem. boat was a pile of shit....but thats another thread..... i hear silverwood is strict also. elsinore....seems more laxed from what im told. i havent been on that lake in nearly 15 years. water color and smell turned me off from going back. things could be different now.

First, some explanation of the situation with some thanks and shoutouts are necessary. To say that owning my first boat has been an emotional rolleroacaster of constant ups and downs would be a complete understatement. It's been the one step forward, three steps back kind of process, a process I'm sure the veteran boat owners have experienced. As a first boat owner, owning and maintaining a boat has been met with joy and disappointment. However, the learning curve has been set and thankfully, this forum has been an absolute life-saver. Special thanks to user Chad Krieger for coaching me through some pitfalls and blind corners I might have otherwise fallen into. Never have I experienced an online community so willing to help and advise, especially to complete strangers. I'm grateful. Thank you.
Long story, short, and unbeknownst to me, while I was running the boat in the driveway I was also filling the primary tubes and cylinders with water. That said, water quickly infiltrated the oil pan and it sent me scratching my head. Where was this water coming from? Was the block or cylinder heads cracked? Thankfully, some time on the phone, and a relentless onslaught of text messages from Kreiger later, we concluded the water from the jet was not being regulated as efficiently as it should be. Two trips to Home depot, a basic 101 study-sesh of how the jet works in regard to cooling the engine and headers, and a replumb of the jet lines later, it was corrected.
Aside from severing a transmission oil line on the truck at Castaic, I've made two trips to the lake (Castaic/Pyramid) with no issues as of yet (fingers crossed). Some fine tuning of the new gate valve from the jet has netted some positive results. I'm happy to report the water is no longer in the oil, the pipes are steaming as they should above 1,200 RPM + and the boat seems to be on track to enjoy for the rest of the season. Unfortunately, I won't be making the AVI. I'll be left looking vicariously through the SoCalJetBoats.com Instagram page for my fix. Hoping for Father's day weekend...
Enjoy the photos...
What did you do to your boat today?
1. New locks for the trailer
2. New boat cover
3. New drop-hitch with 2-inch ball
4. New brass plumbing, including gate valve replacements over the ball valve-type, with water gauge
5. New in-line fuel filter
6. Beer was consumed

Went to Elsinore to test, that's bout it nothing too exciting. Found I have a exhaust leak. I tried tightening the bolts and no bueno, still leaked. Gonna pull exhaust off reseal and see what happens.i put a thin layer of permatex ultra copper gasket maker around my exhaust ports on the gaskets then hang the gaskets up for a day till theyre dry them install them.. seams to work pretty well for me...

Your boat looks great! I saw you towing it the other day at balboa and the entrance to the 14/5 freeway. I honked a bunch of times and waved/thumbs up...
I don't think you saw me... I was in a lifted white 2500hd Chevy truck.

Haha, thanks, dude! I don't remember seeing/hearing anything. Been trying to hit up Castaic and Pyramid as much as possible to shake this thing down. I'm in Northridge. We should make a day trip. Don't have anyone local - as of yet - to go with.

Got out to open water and went no where. Need to look at the impeller, heard rattling and vibrations coming from the jet. But I was told it probably needed a new one when I bought it. So no real surprise there. At least I got it in the water.

Took the bowl off tonight and got a good look at what was causing the issue. After pulling out the lodged rocks the impeller doesn't look too bad. All this is a first for me.
What do you guys think, how does it look? Part of me wants to put it all back together and retest on the water and see how it does.

I think every ding in both the leading and trailing edges will cavitate. I would at least deburr it real good with a file while you got it apart

The dings and poor shape of the impellor don't cavitate, those conditions create cavitation.
You have to remember folks that water is roughly 1,000 times more dense than air. Tolerances are critical in a performance pump.
I guarantee that pump is cavitating. Grinding and filing on the leading & trailing edges without taking into account the balance of the impellor is not wise.
What are the clearances on the wear ring to impellor? Has that cavitation and vibration caused wear on the thrust bearing or the tail shaft bushing?
I spoke with jgrocha ten minutes ago. I know Chris at B1 will be able to steer him in the right direction.
Carry on.

That broken diverter looks to be adjustment caused. If it tries to go higher than the mechanical limit this is exactly what happens. Only seen it twice before.looked fine when installed. Thanks for the info.

Took this apart so that I can try to find a new grommet for it. Anybody know where I can get one locally?I know its going to sound odd .. when I bought my boat last year, it has a piece of 1" silicone hose(about a 1/4" long). Doesnt leak a drop and isnt even noticeable.

I'm ok with going that route as a temp fix to get me on the lake this weekend but I would prefer to put the correct grommet in.

Post by: willowvalley on July 21, 2015, 07:17:31 AM
Plan on having a plate behind that will bolt all 3 together for rigidity. Had to build up a small section of the transom since its contoured so the plate will be level. Used this bonding cement with rubber strips that my dad uses to seal lines in the long beach harbor so I'm sure it's going to seal nice just not sure how attractive I can make it.. Going to pc it black. Any other tricks anyone has in all ears

I built a basic 4"x 4" stand to catch the stringers in the rear and a sandwich of 2"x 12" blocks along with the old seat cushions for the bow area. This combo sat the hull about 1" from the ground so I could sand/work at a good height. The tires were a much needed part to the rotation, if you plan to ever flip a boat this big make sure you have a bunch of tires!

Finished sanding my boat for paint. Then I was driving down the road to get food and seen a new shop that said vinyl wraps, cars trucks and boats so I stopped in to check it out and to wrap my 19ft Hallett bubble deck for as many colors and designs I want for only $650. I'm dropping it off Thursday morning and pick it up Monday. Oh and the best part it comes with a two year warranty for any thing, lifting, scratches bubbles even if I go to fast and it peels off. Covered for two years.
Do you need to seal the glass first?

I asked that and he said no. It's water tight. The wrap over laps a 1/2 in and gets fused. Kinda like plastic welding. It's a trip. He did a couple different joints on my deck to show me how it works and then I poured water on it and completely dry.

Not to shoot your idea down (just giving an honest opinion), but if he doesn't cover fading on the wrap then I wouldn't do it. Had a buddy wrap his boat and it looked like shit after a one summer season.The warranty covers fading. Maybe your buddy didn't have the new 3m craps that's out now. But like I said for $650 bucks I don't give two shits if it only last one summer. It's something different. I already have all the paint and primer to paint it. You looking for paint?? Lol. Jk.

Like I said just giving an opinion. Yes he did use the best product out there on his DCB. He wouldn't go the cheap route on that kind of boat.

Somebody ran out of zip ties and wrapped the wires with electrical tape. Over and over and over… :bang head:
I've seen worse, but, It'd be nice if I could trace the wire without it being spliced to a different color under 10 layers of tape.

When I bought the boat it had a nasty vibration, I talked to a few guys on here and Facebook forums and they confirmed it was because the motor was crooked as all hell. Here's my driveline angle before:

first time out today at Elsinore. Something definitely wasn't right with the pump. The bowl is chewed up inside and the impeller is trash. Looks like someone ran it through some shallow water and sucked up a bunch of rocks. Found a golf ball sized rock wedged in the impeller. First time jet boat owner problems. Took a guys word for it and didn't a look at the pump myself. Guess it's time to upgrade. B.O.A.T.OUCH, sorry to hear that, never take anyone's word on anything when it comes to a used boat. Too many shady peeps out there. :thumbdown:

On a positive note, I found a nearly complete pump for $400. Going to look at it tomorrow or Saturday and pick it up to build or have as a spare. Or if it is good enough I will stick it in the boat and complete build/rebuild this one over time.

I got the nut off, but the impeller is on there good. It has a little shoulder in the back like you find on the front if a pulley. I won't mess with it if I need a puller.

A puller is typically required to remove the impeller. A 3-jaw puller is recommended but I use a lot of heat and a 2-jaw on all of the pumps I have rebuilt. If you do decide to break it down yourself, make sure to reassemble with anti-seize to make life easier for the next go around. Give it a shot, it's easier than it looks if you have the tools.

Bought a second boat. Going to NorCal to pickup now. Don't judge, I know it's a Bayliner. Hondo may be for sale soon. Still looking for a Southwind 18 that is medium blue and silver. Must be original gel. The last pic is exactly like the boat I'm looking for. That is what I grew up in.

I will be doing the work for sure. I'll grab a 3 jaw from my friend and pull the impeller this weekend then strip the shaft, seals and bearings. Going to pick up another pump right now as well.

Just a friendly word of advice. DO NOT BREATH THAT SHIT! Zinc Chromate was likely used on the bowl. The dust is toxic and can enter your bloodstream, good ventilation and a respirator. Better yet, wet sand it.

I love this bottle but does not hold heat very well, and when you put a wet towel on it then it drops PSI 3xs as fast as a traditional metal 10lb NOS bottle, its hard to keep at the right PSI before you make a pass. :thumbdown:
Good this is it holds 2.5 lbs more nos and weight less then a 10lb bottle full, compared to the carbon bottle full :thumbup:

It's about 6-8 inches at most. I
need to button up the plates still and seal it all still since I'm test fitting it all. And get once of those trick tube nuts that has a seal zerk fitting in it for the end.

Then made a little plate to mount to pull switches for my bilge pumps. One any auto with a float and the other a manual. The old setup was all messed up. This will get polished.
Lastly I attempted to fix the clusterfuk of wiring to the gauges. No picture, thank goodness.
Also helped teamwindle22 with his fiberglass and carpet on his boat. Tomorrow we will have 3 boats at the house to work on. Thursday is coming up quick.

Picked my pump up from B1. She isn't much to look at from the outside but Chris got it done for me in less than a week. Paint will have to do on the outside for now. The inside looks amazing. FYI, it looked worse than that on the outside when I gave it to B1, I didn't have the time to let them make it look pretty. Can't wait to get her back on the water. Hurry up Thursday.Chris does a awesome job on EVERYTHING. You will be suprised in a correctly built pump can do. Definitely gonna see some mph gains. 👍👍

I found a electronics whole seller shop near work in Torrance that sells these for $2.00 perfect way to save some money and have a diy steering controls set up if you know what your doing.Looks like that will all work good.

The paper that came with the coil said that with a 1.5ohm coil (which I have) that I am to remove the resistor. I just don't want to mess anything up.

got her fired up. now here's a stupid question. do i need to keep the ballast resistor? I left it in there because I thought i needed it but I was under the impression that by going this way I would be able to get rid of it and get full voltage to the coil.

Just an honest question. Do you know what the resistor is for?
Many do not.
If the instruction sheet says you can delete it, I say your fine.that being said, if you still have the points plate, throw it in the toolbox and simply bypass the resistor, be a snap the swap back to points potentially saving the vacation in case of a failure.

What does it do? I thought it limits the voltage to the coil.
I do have the points that came it, it's brand new as well as the coil too. I'll keep them in the tool bag in the boat.

Garrett
So why do you need to limit the voltage to the coil? Is it not a12 volt coil?
So think about this.
Here is a scenario. You are sitting in the boat, car, whatever. You turn on the ignition key and leave it on with the engine not running. The points are closed. What's happening?
There is 12 volts going to the positive side of the coil, the other side is grounded.
The coil is filled with oil and literally had a coil of wire sitting in it. This wire is heating up because of the wattage being consumed. Until. ... Boom! It either explodes or catches fire.
The resistor eats up that wattage in this case. It protects the coil from this danger.
That's virtually it.

Wow, I never knew that. Thank you. Mine is now sitting in the bag with the points system and the coil.

What did you use to polish up your velocity stacks? Are they chromed?
Mine are a dull aluminum and the mothers I use for the cast alum. scratches the finish. Trying to get them cleaned up.

My neighbor has a bench grinder with some polishing wheels on it. He has these green bars that you put polish onto the wheels and it works pretty damn good. Did my tunnel ram with it and my friend did his headers too. He is a metal fabricator for boats and builds towers and rod holders. He has to polish all the aluminum and stainless and that's what he uses so I just go with it.

Forgive me....I must've missed it....what happened to engine?
(Besides the accident)
Accident didn't do really anything to the boat besides ripping the boat hook out (which we have a plan to fix that). I had a weird temperature is sure on the passenger side. Pulled the valve covers Friday afternoon and noticed a tiny bit of milky oil. Called the parts shop and ordered a gasket set, pulled the intake and heads. Everything looked good. Could easily take another. 030" out of the cylinders if I was going to keep it. Heads look great. Valves and valve springs. So I pulled the freeze plugs and cleaned all the shit out of the engine. She's back together with all new gaskets. Getting new plug wires and going to set the timing and haul ass to the regatta next weekend.

Added 2nd layer of silicone to the transom plate.
Completed the double drill on the bowl & PD, added American Turbine 6" extension before last trip.
Was 1 degree down wedge, trying 2 degrees.
Read about bottom pin on PD HP steering nozzle being 3/4" above ride plate.
Pretty close to that. Ride plate 2 degrees up. Boat jumped nicely and rode higher than first time out last month. Started with a conservative set up to get a feel for this thing. 1st tunnel for me, 8th boat in total. Last 5 were jets, once you go jet there's no other option.
Ordered stud stuff from McMaster Carr for the bowl to intake.

Anyway, the bulkheads between the stringers have been bothering me. The resin that they were coated with has cracked and there is some rot around the drain holes. More importantly, they are in the way of my glassing in the intake opening for my setback and reinforcing the surrounding area.
I was going to do this old-school and grind them out with my 4" grinder, but how could I pass up an opportunity to buy a new power tool? After a little research and debate, I opted for the Dremel Multi-Max 4.0 amp MM45.
I didn't have much hope for the longevity of the blades cutting through fiberglass. Dremel has a pretty good assortment of tools and I was told there was an adapter that allowed the use of other brands, however the tool-less Quick-Lock system is not compatible with the currently available adapters. After digging through all of the Dremel tools, not expecting any to last very long, I decided to try a 1/16" semi-circular abrasive blade for removing grout, MM501, and a somewhat narrow straight carbide cutting blade, MM485.
I was so impressed with this tool. The precision of this tool allowed me to cut between the wood of the bulkheads and the fiberglass hull. I was able to remove the bulkheads intact, I will be able to use them as a template for the new bulkheads. Cutting was very quick and wear on the blades was minimal or even indistinguishable. The carbide blade, MM485, didn't show any wear on the cutting edge, however the TiN coating disappeared immediately.
Dust was surprisingly minimal. I would have felt comfortable performing this work inside my shop without worrying about contaminating everything with fiberglass dust. Even though the cuts were pretty clean, it was still necessary to grind the hull and stringers where the bulkheads were tabbed in.
The performance of this tool was so impressive, it almost makes me want to redo the floor, stringers, and transom. Almost!

So I don't know if I am actually making progress forward or backward. I haven't started putting anything back together, I have only taken things apart.Nice joe way to get after it! Can't wait to see it on the water soon.
Anyway, the bulkheads between the stringers have been bothering me. The resin that they were coated with has cracked and there is some rot around the drain holes. More importantly, they are in the way of my glassing in the intake opening for my setback and reinforcing the surrounding area.
I was going to do this old-school and grind them out with my 4" grinder, but how could I pass up an opportunity to buy a new power tool? After a little research and debate, I opted for the Dremel Multi-Max 4.0 amp MM45.
I didn't have much hope for the longevity of the blades cutting through fiberglass. Dremel has a pretty good assortment of tools and I was told there was an adapter that allowed the use of other brands, however the tool-less Quick-Lock system is not compatible with the currently available adapters. After digging through all of the Dremel tools, not expecting any to last very long, I decided to try a 1/16" semi-circular abrasive blade for removing grout, MM501, and a somewhat narrow straight carbide cutting blade, MM485.

Say compared to a Sawzall. ...
Post by: Flusher on September 28, 2015, 03:53:51 PM
How long did it take to go thru the material?
Say compared to a Sawzall. ...
Just a few minutes for cutting both bulkheads. I'm sure, with the right Sawzall blade, it would be short work. The Multi-Max is smaller and fit inside the small storage space. The blade only rotates 3.2-degrees and was easily controlled cutting blind with only one hand. I made a series of plunge cuts with the MM501 grout tool first. Each cut only took a few seconds until it was all the way through, even when cutting through wood.
I used the carbide MM485 to get to the sharp corners. It cut through the fiberglass quickly, however it was slow cutting through the wood because of the fine tooth pitch. Also, I found that I missed a few spots cutting with the semi-circular MM501, and the MM485 has a greater depth of cut.
I elected to not use my Sawzall because I wanted to make a precise straight cut between the bulkheads and the stringers / hull. The Sawzall blade would be forced to curve to make the cut and would be difficult in the corners. I didn't want to gouge into the surrounding glass, or worse yet, punch through the hull / stringers. The Multi-Max allows much greater precision.
Post by: JARVIS on September 28, 2015, 04:11:35 PM
Tho I did have good control with the Sawzall. With like 12 or 15 in blade. Made curving easy with less pressure. Also with long enough blade you can see the tip on other side of bulkhead. ..Presuming other side is visible. It's definitely not perfect. At times, part closer to tool is more accurate than the tip. I didn't experience any real gouging...that wasn't my own doing. Screwup...if you will.

Cleaning up the gelcoat. It's cleaning up nicely but it's taking some time! Any tips or pointers. Using a 6" polisher and a foam pad with some 3M Color/Gloss Restorer. Anything out there any better or quicker?

I'm going to be doing the same thing once it cools off a little. I have a 3 stage gelcoat restoration kit from jet renu a family member picked it up and donated it to my project. When I get around to using it with my polisher I'll post up some before and after pics.

One is a combination left and right hand carbide insert turning/facing tool integrated into the tool holder. It is a lot more rigid than the shank tool holder and cemented carbide tooling we were using. I don't have inserts that are ideal grade and geometry for 17-4 stainless yet, but I have already pushed up speed and feed while increasing repeatability.
The other, I am really excited to try. It is a face grooving tool that is capable of profiling. It has a 1" shank that I will have to machine to fit our 5/8" tool holders and I might need to clearance it slightly. Inserts are $38 each and are double ended. Expensive, but they have the right geometry for 17-4 stainless compared to the zero rake form tools I have been grinding from cemented carbide inserts. The big thing is, off-hand grinding and constantly touching up my form tool is so time consuming and the other is I can now do in two setups what used to take me five.

Not trying to be a dick, I know the stainless steel flame arrestors are money but what you have (PN: BAR 573001A) look just like the aluminum one's I bought from Teague Custom Marine a couple of weeks ago for less than $60 for the pair + tax and shipping. They even threw in a free bottle of Hot Sauce. 8) Sorry if I am wrong but like I said in the pictures they look like aluminum. If so they are probably worth about $30 for the pair.

They even threw in a free bottle of Hot Sauce. 8) Sorry if I am wrong but like I said in the pictures they look like aluminum. If so they are probably worth about $30 for the pair.ill throw in 2 bottles of tapatio if the hot sauce matters 😂😂

Back to Mcbride in elsinore for a refresh. We demolished 4 rocker arm roller pins our last trip to parker this summer. At least we had a whole summer with the motor this year!!!!What brand rockers are those and how much time did you get out of them before failure?

It was my bad,damn China rockers think they were $175 for the set I got all summer out of them about 5-6 trips between Laughlin and parker.#2 intake valve is sitting in the cylinder blew the keeper off and there is little sparkles of metal on the top of the head. I'll be spending the $ to get some good rockers this time around
I bought these from Teague, not that expensive at $320.

I had a failure of an aluminum rocker in the summer of 2013.
One was broke in half, 10 to 12 of them had small cracks, and failure was imminent. (Harland Sharp rockers)
Aluminum has a duty cycle, or a fatigue cycle, they will fail.
Switched to stainless, and never looked back.

Yeah I have 2 tanks. So 2 returns and 2 pick ups. I welded a return bung on both tanks and also installed a shut off valve at the return bung so I can return only to the tank I'm drinking out of. I'll let you check it out in person out on the lake or if you need to see ASAP you could stop bye.
Yeah i run two tanks as well. But where my tanks are (under the gunnels) i can barely connect a hose for the return, forget about putting a valve in there too.
right now i have -10an bungs welded in the bottom of the tanks, to 1/2npt valves (so i can run off of individual tanks). To a 1/2npt Y fitting to the pump. Then to the carb/NOS setup
My old pickups were at the top of the tank so these will bbe my return lines now.
However like i said, i cant really fit the valve up by the tank. So the vavle gets to go on the Y off of the return from the pump

Sounds like it will work though. Other than returning close to the pickup may cause aerating the fuel. I removed the tanks cleaned them out really good and welded a -8 bung near the filler neck.
yeah i thought about that, but ill jsut use a fitting that dumps it at the top of the tank. No pickup tube. Its about 12 inches above the pickup maybe more

Post by: steves86ta on January 20, 2016, 09:38:24 AM
Ok, but install a Hobbs style saftey switch on the Nitrous fuel line between the regulator and the solenoid incase the fuel presure drops it will then turn the Nitrous off.
thats a good idea
I have a Fuel pressure gauge at the dash i monitor
Was just thinkig. When im on the bottle im on the left tank. Its the one that the race fuel goes into
As a precaution. Icould only run the nitrous with the return going to the other tank if that makes sense

Yeah lol. I had my -10 pick ups going through a Enderle fuel shut off valve with selected witch tank to drink out of and the Nitrous would shut off just after the hit of turning it on. I found the Enderle valve had small ports internally. I replaced with -10 shut off valves and a Y con ector and so far it stays on lol
yeah ive had nothing but fuel issues with this thing. Aeromotive blames cavitation. I just dont see it cativating.
The pressure gauge at the dash doesnt move. But it also has a 15 foot line. Everything is gravity fed, everything is overkill. My valves are 1/2" pipe so they arent a restriction. I just think the aero pump wasnt a good idea in my case.

But when I need something made they plug me into a chair and a pc and make me learn lol. I had to take more measurements last night because my water valve for exhaust is at the bottom of my seat and right in the middle so it will hit the bottle. So I'm making adjustments today if I have time.

This new magnafuel pump is awesome. They have a lifetime customer. Anything I buy will have one from now on.
Think the boat needs some more wedge, I'm at 2* now and it doesn't seem to porpoise, gonna try 3, 4, or 5 whatever my wedges will adjust to.
Got the boat off the water and my intake was covered in condensation. Tried my best to get a picture

Thanks. As of right now it's open. And I'm sure it's not going to sounds to great with no baffles
But the wiring is all loomed, and tightened up to the back.
Planning to try to box it in, but don't have the boat here to mock it all up.
I also run a serpentine belt, so they seem to be a tad bit stronger

Ah I've wanted to go to a serpentine belt maybe when I rebuild the motor next year I'll add it in.
That's why I was thinking about doing it on the Bulkhead and leaving it under dash. Kinda amplifys it and gives it some bass.
Some tunes are better than none tho. I'm using a boom box with like 8 c batteries. Getting real tired of buying batteries lol

Yeah I'd like to put it under the bow, but my fat ass doesn't fit under there.
Here it'll work, looks decent, and with some decent speakers (not these) should sound good enough.
My boat is so damn loud that it would take a very serious system to be able to hear it. It'll work for the beach or the storage unit when cleaning it up.

Yeah I'll only be listening while beached I'm about to install dry headers. I don't use the radio or cds. I have all my music on my phone so a long Aux cable and a remote for the radio should work well. Or even better a Bluetooth stereo.I bought this pioneer head unit from Walmart for 49.00 on clearance. It's a Bluetooth unit, and came with the 4 speakers you see there. Left over Christmas special.
I wanted something Bluetooth or I can plug an aux cord, SD card.
Another option is getting a digital media receiver. They don't have a cd player and are pretty cheap. Also is a little bit shorter than a regular din unit.

Does he set the float levels too or is that something I gotta doIt should be good but it never hurts to check them yourself. He did the carb in my Hallett in the beginning of last season and the floats were perfect when I put it on and checked it with the boat in the water.

Scored the same setup online at Walmart for 89 bucks not as cheap but still well worth it. The head unit alone is worth that.

She made 455ft lbs at 3k 500ft lbs at 4600rpm
400hp at 4800 rpm
The tunnel ram really killed the hp numbers but I'm building an old school boat with nostalgic parts so I got nostalgic numbers.
This weekend I'll be glassing in my new aluminum tank mountains then after their set up I'll install the engine finally.

The one with clear tubing is what we use for air lines on air brake systems. I was told not to use it for anything else.
It's the summit racing brand of "ptfe -8 steel,braided hose" says its good for a variety of fuels and liquids including gas and good up to 650 degrees and 2500psi. The -6 in the pic is fragola brand

I can't remember if the hose was to small or to big for a normal -8 hose end. But I couldn't get it to work
Post by: Flusher on March 01, 2016, 08:47:02 AM
Got all the parts to plumb the oil cooler. Ordered ptfe hose because I'm gunna redo my fuel lines also. The -8 look like just clear tubing inside the braid and the -6 looks like regular hose? Both are supposedly ptfe did I get the wrong stuff? And I don't need special hose ends for ptfe do I?
Please double check the application of your stainless braided PTFE hose. It is my understanding that it is not recommended for high-temperature and pressure applications, such as remote oil filter/cooler application.
The heat from the engine oil will soften the PTFE and the pressure will extrude it through the braiding. Once cooled, the PTFE liner will be permanently deformed.

Each type of hose requires a specific hose end.

PTFE is rated for below 450°F.
Technically your at the limitation of PTFE.
I use Synthetic Nitrile for oil only.

Gotcha. I'm planning on returning the ptfe and getting just the normal hose for the oil and fuel lines and using the fittings I bought. I always run half non ethanol 91/ half AV gas. And there rubber hose is rated for gasoline. Thanks for the reply!

The PTFE hose will last forever with pump gas,but the steel ends will corrode badly.
Rubber hose that is rated for race gas will degrade and ultimately leak running pump gas. Figure three-year life expectancy with Earl's Perform-O-Flex hose and pump gas
The "good" SS braided rubber hose has a colored tracer braid to distinguish it from the cheap moon glow hose.
Fuel line that is degrading will give off an odor before it actually starts leaking.

I like it for the NPT fittings. Don't use it on the AN, the seal is created by the wedge affect as the 37-degree tapers clamped together. The threads on AN fittings are for retention only. I do use anti-seize only on the threads of the AN fittings.

Oh I know not the use it on the an itself just for the npt end of the adapter. I should be okay to use it for fuel tho correct?

She definitely loved boats and going fast. I wish I had been around for it. All this happened when my dad was growing up. One day I'll break into boat racing. My dad even raced the Parker Enduro at one time. If you were in Parker back then you possibly remember Sports Valley it was owned and operated by my dad's aunt and uncle.

Went and picked up the boat from my storage unit in needles last night. Turn around trip and came back. Weather was insane. I have never driven in wind so bad. Or the rain. My 2014 silverado with a 5.3 had a hard time pulling 65 up one of the mountain ranges. Towing the boat.

No the wind was that bad. .. I originally tried to tow it with my cover ratchet strapped on. Wind managed to get 3 of the 8 straps to let loose
Actually got 25.4 mpg on the way there. 6 on the way home

Not yet. I'm thinking i spun the front main bearing. I'm gonna get it out in a couple weeks. I need to strip the other motor down first and make some room in my driveway. The other motor I'd going to get new rings and bearings. Hone the cylinders and swap the c9 heads onto it. Gonna do a little port work on em and put a new cam in it.
Should be ready by summertime.

Just went through that nightmare on a Hallett bubble deck with a Lightening rail kit and an MSD starter.
Can you rotate it CCW (viewed from the picture) and it will clear the block and pan?
The hole for the 153-tooth flywheel can be machined entirely off.

No click when trying to crank, boat is in neutral gauge lights turn on but nothing as far as the motor. I'll have a test light tomorrow to try to run down the problem. If not key switch maybe neutral safety switch?just so you know, there's no neutral with a jet, only fwd/rev and it'll fire in either. 👍🏼👍🏼 cool boat and welcome to scjb btw😊

I don't really feel like it is my place to be posting pictures of other people's boats, so I never took pictures.
It's really a bummer, most of these boats I work on, I will never get to see completed or see run.

This is not entirely true-
Some are set up similar to a merc or outboard, hand controls with throttle...so it could have a neutral safety switch.
However, if it has a foot pedal, probably not.

Went out for a shakedown with the oil cooler yesterday. First problem was I couldn't get the temp above 190. And it's plumbed to the dump side. Second thing was the oil pressure doin weird shit. The higher the rpms the more the pressure would drop. Idle would be about 60 and wot at 5100 was 40psi. Probably gonna take it off anyways but does anyone know why my pressure would jump around like that?

You sound to have two problems.
First, the oil level sounds high and your getting all foamy.
Second, what was the water temp? You will need to have a small bypass around the oil cooler with a gate valve. It's piped correctly, the oil should only be "warm" when the engine runs full tilt for several minutes.

I've dropped 3 quarts already since u mentioned that to me a year ago. It didn't do this before the cooler.
Water temp was probably 60-65 not much cooler than normal summertime river temp.
It's really like a valve opens up and just drops pressure. I'm probably gunna just get rid of it I couldn't even get the temp up enough to burn off moisture

Why the HV pump? Once the system is primed, the flow would remain the same, as established by the engine clearances.

To compensate for the pressure drop off the cooler and additional lines.

There was a great analysis ( http://mechdb.com/index.php/Oil_filter_analysis) where someone cut up and measured almost every brand of filter. It seems to no longer be up (or not viewable on my cellphone). It was also mirrored on several other sites. Of course I can't find it right now. This study fell just short of the K&N filters the last time I looked.
Anyway, take apart a few filters and draw your own conclusions. It is quite eye opening to see what is actually inside.
If anyone has a link to this or a similar study, please post a link.
Thanks.

Not 100% sure who makes it but it's big. Original owner thought it was 12q. I couldn't get the temp above 180 after 20 minutes of 4500 rpms at Elsinore. Never got warm enough to burn off the moisture I had a lot of froth in the valve covers. The oil would be about 60-70psi idle and once I'd hammer it to 5k it would be at 40psi. And it would drop after like 5 seconds

Just an FYI, flare fittings and AN are different angles. Did you use copper O-ring on the brass to aluminum?
Trying to save you a leak or two.

Oh crap. I didn't know that. Where do I get the o-rings? Now that I look at my plumbing I see I've got some other flare fittings including on my fuel lines. Haven't had any leaks yet..
Earl's makes a copper crush gasket, a refrigeration supply house will have some too. It's not the best fix, but may save you some grief.
Standard flare is typically 45°, whereas AN is 37°.

got a 
on the way but my morning down time has me in the garage doing finish work this has been a 10 month project and it's finally 99% done just need to make a set of plug wires thinking of doing a set of cloth coated wires that Reid's sells by the foot in down town orange since he is close. He is a few close ups of the wiring did everything at home in the garage this was my first time doing a boat and pretty happy the way it is coming out. Got a lot of inspiration from past and previous posts that SoCal jet boats has on the forum, so to everyone thanks since I'm the new guy on the block.

I made the whole harness from scratch also taking a lot of time but well worth it.
Tailoring the wiring to the boat and engine after It was installed was important to me, I didn't want to look like a joke or have to do it over down the road.

Any one have any reviews from high tech coatings in Santa Ana?Can't go wrong with Embee they do a very good job, but like anything good u have to pay for it. I've had stuff done by Embee that they weren't happy with and redid it themselves before I ever even saw it. They are a great company to work with, u won't be disappointed.

Made the appointment to drop my boat of at B1 tomorrow. New rigging (get rid of the old school 3 point) and rework the pump (add Place Diverter, snoot, ride plate, etc). Any Sprint guys running the Snoot on their Sprint? I'm not completely sure it's needed. Any feedback would be appreciated. Now the biggest question, How much horsepower will the boat have in the future? Who knows? One very cool thing is, my son-in-laws boat (JacksEliminator) is coming out and mine is going in! Can't wait until we get them both on the water.
Welcome to SCJB.
I was wondering if your question might get lost in this thread. There are a few guys running Sprints.
Here is a thread about your question http://www.socaljetboats.com/jet-pumps/eliminator-sprints/msg222233/#msg222233 (http://www.socaljetboats.com/jet-pumps/eliminator-sprints/msg222233/#msg222233).
Here is a link to the search results of "eliminator sprint". http://www.socaljetboats.com/search2/ (http://www.socaljetboats.com/search2/)
There are a lot of different threads about sprints.
It seems most do run a snoot on theirs. If B1 recommended it, then I would think it will benefit your ride.
Let us know the results after you get it back and run it. :thumbup:

Just went through that nightmare on a Hallett bubble deck with a Lightening rail kit and an MSD starter.
Can you rotate it CCW (viewed from the picture) and it will clear the block and pan?
The hole for the 153-tooth flywheel can be machined entirely off.
I was able to clock the starter just enough to clear rail kit barely

Never driven the boat nor do I know what to look for in handling characteristics.

Looking good. Could you send pics of the hinges for your hatch? Also how do you secure your hatch to keep it from flying open? Thanks!
Thanks, Steve
Well that makes about as much sense as a soup sandwich!

Here you go, Steve.
I am using the hinges that came on the boat, which had three different hatches on it and looked like crap. I prefer the single piece hatch. I am using the same style of latches that are used on tool boxes, retail at surplus tool places for about $15 each, with some custom made catches inside. I will send pics of those when I get them finished. Lol. In the meantime, I am using some gas/hydraulic lift shocks to hold it up/down. I have them set up so that they are offset to push the hatch attachment points back while the hatch is closed, to give it some downward pressure. Hope this helps.

Didn't realize the intake manifold would be so cold! It was almost frozen and sweeting from fuel atomization I guess? Not sure what causes that but engine didn't break 120 while out on the water. Idle it was around 150 but engine ran really cold and alt is poorly grounded through the aluminum bracket.

The water is flowing through your block at mach 2. It doesn't have a lot of time to transfer heat. A lot of heat energy is removed by the high volume of water flowing through the cooling system.
Watch your oil temp. Water temperature is irrelevant.

Well guys I ended up buying Marty Russo bahner. Couldn't pass it up for the price. Needs a lil tlc and a couple here in there's but he made that perfectly clear before I made the purchase. Has a few typical gel cracks for something it's age. But overall the boat is turn key and gonna be taking it to Blythe this weekend. Already have a lot of plans for it. Bostick has me a cruiser motor being built, wanna put center exit exhaust like that Bitchin Orange Nordic had, nick "madskillzfab" will be making me swim steps, rail kit, and a few other things. So far I am in love. Color fades are amazing. Really happy with purchase and can say Marty is a stand up honest guy! 👍🏻
Nice cruiser!
also gonna be weird filling up a boat at a regular gas station again, haven't been able to do that for almost 2 years 😔

I want to add some blue bezels to go behind the gauges. Now that I look at it, I'll probably take off the pin striping on the dash also.

Thanks Steve. It's hard for me to do any big projects with the boat(time, space to work, $$). So I figured I should at least get focused on trying to get the small, easy stuff done.

Nothing today. But going to make sure that all the water is out of it tomorrow went out to pyramid lake on Wednesday and they failed me because water came out the jet now my boat is on a 8 day quarantine.Damn that sucks. That's my lake and I always get through somehow. I pull over by the hot dog guy at the off ramp and run a towel over everything to make them happy. The good thing is once your good you get the tag so you don't have to get inspected next time. This whole quagga muscle thing is such crap.

It's not anything jet, but the prop reworked and detailed.

I've been thinking-
Your lower unit gear ratio- Why not put it in gear, and use a breaker bar to turn the motor over 1 revolution and see how many revs the prop goes?
1.5:1, 1.83:1 I think, and 2:1? Its been too long since I've had merc school. 28 years ago, wtf.

Lapped the valves. Pressure washed the heads put them back together. Later today will be cleaning the block and putting it all back together. Glad I chose to do head gaskets. Found some completely plug water ports causing hot spots on a couple pistons. Anyone have a recommendation for preventing that?

Best? - Closed cooling.
Better? - Sand filter after pump gate valve.
Easy? - Pull engine drain plugs after every outing. I did this for years, I lived in Big Bear at the time (winterized at the river, Nov. and Mar. was still freezing in Big Bear, and had 32* nights in Aug. :banghead: ). The last weekend of the season, pulled plugs and fired it up, pump still in the water, flushed any sand out. No or little sand build up. Wet sand freezes, ask me how I know.

Leaving for Laughlin in the morning. Pulled the boat out for the first time since last August.
Put steering wheel and rack back together.
Washed, lubed, check for leaks, made sure water lines were tight, charged battery ... I'm tired.
Still have to wax and polish and pack :P.

Thought I'd pull the loader from the Canyon and check it out since it hasn't been out in 20 years. It had 1/4" stainless bolts in it...... I got 2 out. The other 2 broke the bit on my impact driver. Wound up drilling the heads off to get the loader out. Vise grips did nothing on the first one but make a mess of what was left above the surface, so started drilling a pilot so I could drill it bigger to thru bolt it. You know what happened. :banghead: The ONLY good part about that is it's one of the pads I can get to from the backside to drill it out..... with a right angle drill. The other bolt I drilled a pilot, collapsed the threads and got it out.Finally got the broken bit and bolt out, drilled thru and have grade 8's on order. Would have had to pull the motor to fix this if I hadn't found the right angle drill head. Best $25 I've ever spent..... :thumbup: :beer:

Where you going to take it? Pyramid or Elsinore? I still haven't tried Pyramid yet, kind of expecting to get kicked out for loud headers. I'll want to open it up which doesn't sit well with the low speed limit there either. I might go to Elsinore Sunday, I know it's low, but manageable from my standpoint.

Turned out to still be too tall for the scoop.added 1.75 inches in height to the scoop, filled it with fibreglass, started working it into shape. I actually think it looks better.

FIRST I HAD A CHAIN AROUND THE INTAKE HOUSING NEAR THE BELLHOUSING, BUT THEN I WRAPPED THE CHAIN AROUND THE LOG TO GIVE IT MORE ANGLE AND IT WORKED OUT GREAT. THEN UP FRONT I WRAPPED A TOWEL AROUND A 4X4 AND RAN IT ACROSS THE LIP OF THE BOTTOM OF THE BOAT WITH A FLOOR JACK.

No... it's a Miersch valve that I've had for a while on the shelf. Took it off the Crusader to replace with a Ralls valve and since its just been sitting, figured what the hell... and put it on the Gullwing. It's gonna get black anodized this week with other parts.
One step closer... and 2 bucks deeper in this "clean up" job.

Yeah... she's been kinda shabby for a while. Dewey got the motor... needed to cover that hospital bill... I'll stuff something together with shit I got kicking around to get my through the season or snatch the 427 out of my Chevelle for the time being... you never know... just depends on how much time I have and what loot looks like after the purdy up process... I'm not expecting it to be a very large budget left...😂

Test fit the motor with the new mock up plates and rails, wanted to make sure everything looks good since I rigged the boat using solid works on the computer. Everything worked out perfect and now to pull everything out to finish machining the rails and backing plates and have the motor plates machined.That looks bitchen Gary" its coming together very nicely". Can't wait to see her all set up .

Hit Silverwood Lake up on Saturday instead of Elsinore (thanks for the heads up people). Did my first trip in the Tahiti since I bought her. Still breaking in the rebuilt 460 (9 hours now) but got it up to 58mph according to the phone app. Did about 10 laps on the lake and pulled up to the launch ramp right when the Sheriff was dropping their boat in. Probably a good time for me to leave at that point. Boat ran solid and the hull was very stable with no porpoising or noticeable handling issues. Should be a good summer! See you all at Parker this weekend!Sweet, congrats on a good first run, that lake is very "hit and miss" I've been out and it's glass and I've been out and taken white caps over the bow, it gets ugly up there quick, was my go to spot for quite a while but after how bad it was the last trip I'll stick with Elsinore or the river👌🏼

Yeah it got windy and choppy but nothing to big. We anchored out in the cove to the North East and relaxed a bit. Overall it was a nice day but I won't go there again, to small for me. Parker, Elsinore, Big River, Laughlin and Havasu are next on my list!

My day started thinking I was all set to go this weekend until I decided to unwrap the stereo/amp wiring and inspect the old speakers behind the grills.. I was shocked and ashamed at the amount of garbage wiring for a simple stereo setup. 6 hours later it's all perfect, removed all old wire & cheap crimp connections, replaced with marine feeders, military soldered all connections and replaced the speakers.
Left the old Clarion tape deck & amp since they're perfect and IMO pretty cool. I think I'm going to start making mix tapes for the river haha!
Headed out at 6am tomorrow!

I wanted it last time because it had a good pump with a diverter but the guy took it off. Yea, it had 355 olds and I told him he could keep it. Lol I'm not sure yet, either another big block Chevy or maybe an LS motor.

I put a new motor in the boat. Now that the boat has headers I need relocate the batteries which means the diverter pump had to be moved as well. Before, it was screwed into the transom which is something I'm not a fan of so I made a bracket that shares the swim step bolts and will share one exhaust block off bolts. The new battery boxes will mount off the stringers behind the motor. The block off plates are cut, but need to be drilled and polished. I'm stoked to see what this motor does for the Advantage. It's a big step up from what was in it.Very nice bud" that new mounting bracket looks killer Jordan" That power plant looks like it's going to hurt some feelings just saying

Was nice enough here in st.louis to take it out and do some testing. Had a couple of friends meet up as well. I'm getting way too much water in my headers. Tried adjusting the pressure on the gate valve but didnt help any. I'm gonna order a new Bassett t valve and see if that changes thingsPull the t off and check the spring and ball in it.....your spring maybe stuck or broke....the spring i think is 11$ cheaper then buying the whole thing

I had the same issue one time after checking my ball and spring. It turns out the spring has a taper to it and the ball went into the spring. So just make sure the little end of the spring, goes towards the ball.
