Don't get discouraged. Any major job like that will have some
bugs to work out. Did you get to
look at your water pressure, temps etc?

What is your plan. Is it "only" a matter of changing the seal, or do they want to rebuild the tranny? Did Rik give you an idea about when you'll be good to go?

sorry to hear about you troubles but "Good things never come easy". We are all so excited to see how it turns out!

Thanks for all the updates good or bad.

Mechanic will have engines out by Friday. New transmissions to be delivered Monday.

Sorry to hear about the problem. Pulling the motors cost a little $$$$$. What transmission, 1350?

Wait , I`m confused, I thought the Arneson B1 conversion did not require transmissions?

It does. It is included in the ASD#6 and ASD#7M kits. It sits in the standoff box, so you don't have to move your engine forward. One of the many reasons why the setup is as strong as it is. I think it's a Velvet Drive trans of some sort.

Yes

We did have to move the engine 3" forward.

That sucks you had to move the engines because I heard from Rik that I would not have to. But obviously every boat is different.

Did you have to move them because your notched transom or something else?
