The 3 man is getting some mney dumped into her

jeff1000man · 01-29-2009, 09:26 PM

I think I am going to spend between 5-7K on it before the season. Get some better heads for the engine, get her dialed in on the dyno. 2 stage water pump for the intercooler. Re do the bildge. Add a couple guages. New 3 man intercom.

Pulling the seats for new upholstery, Cleaning it out under the deck. Lots of (rap accumulated under there.

I wonder if I will find any vintage 80's beer cans under there?

Going to keep her for a while and then get her a bigger brother. I am going to spec it out to break into the 90 range when I mash on the throttle real hard on a noce day and surprise the neighbors.

Think I might even put a few of the race decals back onto it.

I will post pics as I go. Going to try and make it nice.

Do I ad the orange into the headrests or not?

Keep in mind that the boat is all white around the seats.

I second that ,,,post some more of that lady instead of the boat .LOL

Jeff,,no orange in the headrest !!!!

And don't u put cupholders in those bolsters,,,,shift left throttle right and in a race u swap the 2 and have a throttleman seat to your left !!!!!!!

Throttleman is still on the left. Setting it up for a poker run boat. When I drive solo, i can still throttle with my left hand.

I have to have somewhere to hold the beers.

New headsets and comm unit shipped today, new speedo kit showed up yesterday.

Ordered sea strainer and 2 stage pump from eikert yesterday.

Waiting on new heads to come from the shop.

Start doing some rigging work on the boat next week. She is a little rough looking right now.

Need to line up a fiberglass guy to work on the deck and fairing, and cracks around the engine comp. Need to start working on the new hatch also. Need to brace it up so I can put a removable swim pad on it. Going flat with the hatch, and a snap on cover.

Got a swim step for the back.

Got a new VHF.

Got new tires and rims for the trailer, but those will wait until the boat is finished.
