A few issues over the years haha

Early in boating I didn't know how important Inconel was...


then went real lean with clogged fuel system found out Inconel holds never saw a valve look like that...

then a TRS gear this spring...



the latest was rod through oil pan a few weeks ago....

I hit a alligator in my Pantera a few years ago . Didn't hurt anything on the boat and nobody was willing to dive in and check on the gator so I don't know if he had any damage .

Snap, where the hell were you running when you hit that thing? I want to make sure I'm as far away as possible! I found a submerged tree stump on Taylorsville Lake back in 2000 running about 40. Only thing holding the drive to the boat were the hyd lines.

Didn't want to show my stuff off because first time was our own fault. You should check piston to valve clearance when changing cams. Maybe thats why I don't build engines.
