[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 144292, member: 1523"] Midnight, thanks for the compliments. I've been slow getting back to the boat. We did manage to take it out last Wednesday with mixed results. First trip of the year and I found out that both pop off diaphrams in the carbs had burst so it wasn't fueling correctly and some was leaking into the bilge. We were running 40mph at 5k and ran it for about thirty minutes up and down the river trying to use up last years fuel and get the cobwebs out. I put a new pump on and I can't wait to crank this thing up to 6500rpm. I also made an engine cover last week at work out of a traffic sign. No pics yet but it turned out pretty good. It was nice to hit the water again. I have about five big project bidding for my time right now and the boat is one of them. Jamie [/QUOTE]
