EC39, your new engines are really impressive, even in the assembly room! (I keep suggesting to Barb that we should see if you'd part with the old ones,,,,,,,,I don't think she's feeling the same way though,,,,,,,,something about new couches and carpet.) CH

Made the call to Sterling Performance to see if I keep the boat or move on to something else. If the price is OK, then I will have a set of back up motors. I am so mad that I am not at LEOPA right now. I would truly love to post how I really feel but it will only make a mess of things. .................................................. ..

Don't feel bad I missed LEOPA as well. I am spending the weekend visitng St Louis and Kanasas City. Having a great time.

Buying another boat is not going to resolve your problems. You will simply inherit somebody else's problems. Your problems are purely mechanical. You have a great boat. You need a good mechanic. Take your time over the winter and get it done right. The quick fixes are just costing more $$$ and aggravation..

The only problems I had were casued by two transmissions that I did not rebuild (somebody told me they were freshly rebuilt) and some braided lines that were assembled by some idiot in Wisconisn.

Other than that everything was great.

Having competent people work on your stuff is the only way to go. Letting them tell you they are competent does not mean squat.

I am looking at a new 36 Nortech Cat with Ilmor with #6s or Arneson Drives. The boat should run 120mph bone stock.

Mark, can put the Ilmors in and have you ready to go before Key West or I'll put the 1150 sterlings in for you, but the Nortech 1150's I'll back with full warranty and will be faster than sterlings. I'll take your boat in on trade. What else can I do to put you in the supercat. once I take you for a ride at the shootout your sold. Jim
