That's the one I went and picked up at Billy B's place a few of weeks ago, it is the narrow Biesemeyer(Bezer). It was a total POS last year, it was the blue one he had, it was posted on HB!. A friend of mine(sgd7) bought it, going to make a K Boat out of it, going to join the NKRA, have a notion to do the same thing when the Rayson gets done!.. :good  :jumpie

I knew this shit was going to happen!.. :(

Since the v-drive was already mounted for me I didn't have to mess with it right, yeah well something in the back of my head kept telling me I'd better stick the prop shaft in and see it fits, good thing I did because you couldn't slide the coupler but a 1/4" on the shaft, it was a no go. Now if I'd lined up the motor for the driveline and made up the plates and brackets and bolted it all in and the prop shaft wouldn't go, man what a mess that wouldv'e been!.. :eek  That's what happens when you powder coat everythng and don't tape off all the contact sufaces, also when the stringers were all redone material is added so that changes too. The thing to do would have been not to powdercoat anything and plug up all the holes in the stringers and start from scratch, that way you just line the v-drive up, clamp it, drill and bolt it up done deal!.. So the easy way would have been to just line up the box and make new brackets, but since they are all nice and pretty I decided to try and save them which I was able to do, it took me just about six hours to do it but I finally did it, the coupler slides on just as smoothe as can be!.. :good  That's cool, more $$$$$$$ for me!.. :D  :good

Man you got that right, it's a real pain in the ass to try and match things up and make it right, :(  it's a lot easier to start from scratch, just measure drill and bolt it!. :good

Well back to the project, it's time to line up the motor for the solid driveline, the jig is in the block and I hang it with the hoist and get it as close as I can and set it down on the rails!..
