Yes we did....got in around 1:30 Saturday and climbed around it for a couple of hours.
Sorry we didnt call...we we're on a mission. It is clean but needs some elbow grease, a little upholstery work, some of the staples let go in the back seat...nothing too major there though...and the cuddy carpet is pretty run dow, I would want to change that out. Fiberglass had a good shine and had no dock rash or blistering anywhere. Trailer is mint, no issues there. |

It is my understanding that the springs need to be done at the 200-300 hrs mark and the head gaskets are a good idea as well. Am I off in thinking this?? |

You are over due to have them done. 250 hours and on, you are on borrowed time. Not a super big deal but still a small chunk of change especially if you are not doing it yourself. Head gaskets are optional I think.

Am I off in thinking this?? the cams they used on the early 500 carb engines had a high lift and would cause water reversion and the valve springs would rust and break.:drink: |

From what I know and have heard the 500 Carb Bulldogs had that problem NOT the 500EFIs

Let me know what you think. |
