Will do XT, I have some good ones already that I need to figure out how to get them up on here. We have a good size group of about 6 Bajas and she went to a good home. I have def. appreciated all the work that has gone into this boat and the countless hours of customization, I just keep finding more and more things. I see you were a big part of it as well following the "rebirth of the baja"!

Definately would like to see pics of it back on the water again myself. Good luck with the boat it's definately one of the nicest 36's out there.

I thought I remember a thread with a guy was proud to own it and he was keeping it though

Xt, who did most of the maint on the engines? First, I want to be sure I winterize it correctly, its not like normal where there are plugs in the block. I also want to know what engine oil was used etc... Thanks for any input!

You'd winterize it pulling antifreeze in through the freshwater flush connections after it's reached operating temp. Then change the oil and fuel filters and your done. This is short version everyone has little processes they use. I like to mix a witches brew in a can and run engines on it while winterizing. Don't forget to put Stabil(Marine version) in as well to combat the ethanol.

Got your PM, and sent it to Adam because he is the person who installed them originally, and when the boxes/drives were done.

Thank you very much XT, its really appreciated. I winterized as I always would today, pulled the hoses on the oil cooler and steering cooler, and also the plugs on the headers but as I said I cannot find a drain on the block. I ran about 5 gallons of antifreeze through it with muffs until it was running out the exhaust for a couple min's at idle, then fogged through the intake prior to shutting down. Then pulled the plugs again to get the antifreeze out of the headers. This should be good but I would def like to drain the block. Also, I wonder about if it has a oil thermostat and if it has to be up to temperature to actually let the antifreeze go through the motor while it is running. I do not really know how that works. It will bother me if I dont know how it is suppose to be done right. Its here in my garage for the winter so I am ready to go do it right once I know the right way, though it should be good as is. Thanks again!
