Although, we collectively hope to never experience such catastrophic failure in any nuclear safety-related piece of equipment. Therein lie the underpinnings of preventive maintenance.

I liked this one: "cylinder case failure"
Hey Formula Outlaw (Russ?) glad to see you're still poking around in here once in a while. So you're going to Nashville to be a country music star eh? I think I've read every one of your 311 posts; they could probably be used as a 311 FAQ.
So ya think these mills are nice and loose now? Hmmm...1100 hrs...can I switch to synthetic yet? Just kidding...
I know Mike (offthefront) is holding on to his spare set of MPIs for me; he's got to make a fellow Gator, same name, 311 owner a sweet deal (what exactly is the bunny supposed to mean anyways?) ("...all I want for Christmas is two MPIs"... )
I went out this afternoon but man it wasn't pretty out there so no speed runs; I did some canal cruising though. I'll look to get out early tomorrow and hit some protected ICW in Miami.
Thanks everyone for the interest,
Michael

Dang Cuda, I thought I was up late last night! Did Debbie forget to take the hatch off after your exhaust pics?
The starboard motor seems a little looser, usually around 25psi; port motor is about 5-10psi higher. Right now there's Merc 25-40 in there, still looks pretty fresh. I'm going out again today so I'll verify what they're reading, and at exactly what rpm that's at.
Thanks,
Michael
