| Quote (Craig @ Nov. 12 2003,7:54 am) | Yeah, It's been apart WAY too long  I was all jazzed to try this new prop. It requires more positive trim than a Bravo. The day we went out to Pleasant it was too rough to get it that high. Tried a couple of runs but just couldn't safely trim her up. Then bam  zinged the motor. Luckily it didn't hurt the motor, I got her pulled back quick! Hit the GPS recall, it let go at 98.4 mph! You ever bring that v over to the west side? |
Well hope you have better luck this time!.. 
I took my boat to Bartlett one time when I put the injectors on to try it out instead of going all the way out to the river, what a mistake that was!. Never even got it in the water, I was on the trailer making some adjustments on the barrel valve before launching right, here comes this old bastard cop in his boat, comes right up behind my boat, tells me to shut it off and starts yelling at me like I was some fkn child molestor or something, goes on and on about noise, tell me I HAVE to have water(I had mufflers), finally after about 5 minutes of his shit, I told him he could take his cesspool lake and shove it up his ass!.  Then it took me almost a whole day to clean the boat from all the dirt I got from going up there. THEN, I had to listen to the wife's shit about "I told you we should have gone to the river" blah, blah, blah!..(couldn't argue with her though, she was right! !. I'll stick with the river. In over 20 years going to the river, I've never been treated that way ever even when I got my ass reamed!!..As far as I'm concerned, AZ can take all these shit holes and shove them up their ass!..
Ooops, sorry for the vent!..

Really, you need to get your drive back together its been long enough. Take a break from work and get to work 
 
Yeah that's my Daytona in my avatar!. I was thinking that would feel right at home in the GN boat, with a hat on it, should push it 115+ easy, yeahhhhhh. 
It would have been interesting if ya had a tattle tale on the tach 
 I make sure I let you and Chuck know when we're headed down your way. We can meet at Hooters again  
it failed at about 3500rpm. The heads had quite a few hours on them from the last rebuild 5-6 years ago that my Dad did. They checked out ok as far as sealing and cracks go, so I decided just to run'em. Its just a cammed up 454 nothin special. I'm thinking that when I lost the crank bearings in the spring that I may have had some valve interference issues. The bearings on that hole were pretty much gone(had about .125 play on the rod)
