That was a good 3 hour reading on my sick day. Reminds me of what OSO used to be about. Hope everyone comes back in one piece. Cant wait for the outcome!

It's such a fun thread I can't help myself.
I like onion rings.

Nice Jay. It's up at Boyne, I remember seeing you take the picture. I was flattered to see your interest in the old girl. Thanks!

Hey Bill, thank you. There's a thread in the Saber forum about the changes. It will have 5.0 Whipples rear entry fuel inj. Coil on plug ingnition. Then all fresh rings, springs, bearings. I've been thinking about cast manifolds, like Stainless Marine or Imco. I'm not sure if they will flow enough tho. It would be nice not to weld up water leaks every season.

Cheeee...mang... are you kidding?
I love those old school babes, especially the ones who take care of themselves.
WW and Kemo are two of my all time favs.

Also, Mister Thumper, sir- if I may...
all due respect to you Lake Michigan guys, but-
I take exception to your comments regarding 'wake jump photo shoots'.



Speaking for myself, that particular day on Grand Lake was the most memorable for me ever on any water by a long shot.

Imagine sitting on the swim platform of a cruiser
with a dozen of the baddest boats you will ever see in your life
running right at you nonstop for a couple of hours.

I guarantee you was a religious experience.
The memory of that day only gets sweeter with time.

Hey Dan- I'm running the Stainless GEN 3 manifolds and have no issues with them. They work up to 1400 HP.
