Merlin supposedly puts severe duty valves on when you buy them assembled.

I guess we will find out when I buy the next head. That one is pretty much junk now.

the block salvagable?

Yeah, Should be about the same as your last one. Needs 2 pistons and a new head. Possibly a rod.

I guess I can start slamming Merlin heads now. You would think they would laast more than 2 hours before coming apart.

the weird thing is it is the intake and not the exhaust... oh well it could be worse..........

you could be pulling it back from new orleans with a blown motor.

i wonder if it could be an oiling problem? did you use old rocker arms? if roller rockers have a bad needle bearing the can lock up and break a valve.

They arent going to warranty it? valves should just break maybe machine work was sloppy and valve guides or something was bad?

you would be surprised of what they can do to rebuild heads

what did the end of the sparkplug look like? I wonder if it failed and rattled in there?

it could be a lot worse......don't get your d!ck in the dirt.....rember its only the begining of May:(

No problems with the plugs. It was a simple valve failure.

I am going to get the loose pieces out of the boat and go put it up. I will worry about it next week.

i have a guy that is going to fix my head as a spare if you want i can get you his info. that head can easily be fixed.

to bad you have to pull the block for a rebuild now.:(

go ahead and order the parts big guy......

Ok,, 8:00 PM tonight,, where are we going to start it off? By 10:00pm I expect everyone to be at pappas or eldorados, waiting in line to buy jeff a drink, Jeff pick the flavor and we will keep them comming.

if we start a trend of buying peoples drinks everytime there chit breaks down we are all going to need second jobs, besides him and george are already half in the bag anyway....

oh and by the way if you ride with me to a bar i suggest ( well george suggests ) you take my keys away from me. Not because you need to worry about me drunk driving, you have to worry about me drunk driving home without you. Please consider this my public apology lefty, Shananhans to Walden is a pretty tough walk!!!!

sounds like a great plan to leave Lefty........I will use that anytime he rides with me in the near future.....wich will be 0

What!!!!!!!!!!

What? ???? What country do they speak What in? WWWHHHAATTT...you heard me mother f@cker What Country do they speak What in? WWWHHHAAATTT?

say WHAT one more fu@kin time

OK After phone consultations with 2 doctors we have figured out that I have severe swimmers ear which is causing pressure on my cranium causing a migrane. I poured poroxide into it and will not be visiting the doctor because I just spent all of my money on a broken boat motor. I will go to the doctor next week after the next pay check comes in. Hopefully my brain doesn't follow the same track as my boat and explode also.

Pistons have been ordered and engine pull hs been scheduled. ETA on sea trial is now scheduled for 3 weeks from today.

I have mixed my first drink of the evening.

Head is missing a chunk behind the seat. I will probably have to order a new casting.

I am going to open them up a little more on this build. Should make a little more power.

Remember, everytime you break one, you should take the oportunity to make a little more power. :evilb:

How the f^ck do you get swimmers ear fallin in 3 feet of water? You spend more time in the shower touchin yourself in dirty places

cruisers are the way to go.:D When it breaks you just sit at the dock all summer and have a great time while saving money from gas to rebuild whatever broke:D

did you really just throw a underhanded pitch over the plate at the beltline? I know the responses will be comming....let me get a few out of the way

if it breaks:

Call John tell him its broke and the bar is empty

Mikey will fix it, and put everyone else including Trojan-Man on the back burner

Tell Kim you are busy fixin the boat while you are drinkin and Mikey is fixin it

i could go on and on:evilb: :evilb:



BTW if the bar is empty is that the same as broke???

You are a funny guy....

Fact 1: Islander running
Fact 2: smooth operator is not
Fact 3: you wish you had my set up
Fact 4: I do not wish to have your set up
Fact 5: The Islander has always got me home:evilb: :evilb:

d!ck

HMMMMMM!

You should either be being nice to your mothers or trying to create new ones. :evilb:

I'm extremely gay and I have no penis.

admitting is the first step:chimp:

I know. It's been along time but it's about time I came out of the closet. Also, Tom, I can't control my feelings for you anymore.

Damn Chad, I had no idea!:p

Are you losing friends and family due to this addiction?

would you rather type on OSO than hang out with your old lady?

Is your production at work detierating due to a constant need to refresh OSO?

Would you rather type something on OSO than just call your buddy next door and ask him the question?
