Sweet, watch that old fuel too. make sure you through some super in it or run up to lees airport and mix in some av-gas... Dave and I might work on getting lots of boostane, I have 3 quuarts left, its great to keep around if you fell gas might be sketchy.

There is some boostane in it from the end of last season and I was already getting some gas cans and ready to head to Lee airport haha.. Great minds think alike. I think I only have 1 quart of boostane left. Was going to grab 10 gallons per tank at lee

Well I got the heads from the machine shop yesterday and they are back with Dave and ready to be installed. Definitely needed the valve job and one of the seats were cracked and about to drop out of the head. Someone upstairs was looking out for me since that would have been a bad day for the bottom end. Definitely pulling the top off the other motor at the end of the season. Still planning on being on the water by Saturday afternoon.

Wow that guy is fast.

It was just about a month from finding the issue to getting it complete. Since it was the busy time of year I helped out by taking the heads to the machine shop myself and bringing them back. Today and tomorrow morning are cleaning time lol...

12 weeks waiting on manifolds to get hydrodipped, every week a new excuse.. Today the cops were called to the shop , I just couldn`t take it anymore and lost it.

Damn dude. That sucks. Hope you get it sorted out..

The boat ran awesome this weekend. Ran all over the south side of the bay bridge. In recovery mode today lol
