Rick, Where were you!!!

Damn, can't a guy be a little late nowadays? I fly nearly 3000 miles and no Rick! Anyway John was great and I really enjoyed talking to him. I'm sure he filled you in on my plans. I really don't want to buy the base 375hp motor and turn around to sell it when I take delivery of the boat. It looks as I may do that however. I'm gonna start working with my local friends who build engines to see what I can come up with for my budget. I'm wondering if the 496 accessories ( alt., ps. ect..) will bolt to a 502 based block. 540 and a whipple is still my destination.

As far as I know, it's a plain 496. Hull was completed last week. Bob has to complete the cockpit trim, then it's all Johns boat from there.

Rick,
No you did'nt see my wife on monday. I would have been lookin for you if I made it back. I called John and told him we were having to much fun in Manhatten to get back over before my flight. We had a hotel on Broadway and must have done everything there is to do. I think I need new shoes now. Not used to the walking every where you go.

FASTER,,,WHAT SIZE SB DID YOU ORDER??? Y2K??? GLAD YOU HAD A GREAT TIME ON "BROADWAY"....DID YOU GET YOUR POCKETS PICKED???LOL

Baja, I have not put a deposit as of today. It may happen on monday. I have two houses in escrow, so I've been waiting to make sure everything flies before takin money out of the bank. As I said earlier, I want to have my engine figured out before putting things on paper anyway.
My wife was lookin at the 34, but I want the Y2K so i can run a single and I like the 30 better. Besides the 34 is alot more money. Ya, everything is a little expensive on Manhattan, exept the comedy shows.
