    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    Close but no cookie... Engines and trans performed great. Besides the port lift pump kicking off and on a couple times due to a bad weather-pack connector, everything checked out. However the 4 blade props we have on there would unhook just about the time she was ready to nose over. Tried...

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    Well,, I started today off by stabbing myself in the forearm with a pick tool that was laying on top of the outdrive. Drove that little sucker into the muscle about 2" deep, to the point I couldn't pull it out. And no I didn't take any pictures.. Luckily my new found helper isn't squeamish, and...

    It was windy and rough on the bay, so we just idled around couple miles. Fixed some leaks and tested transmissions. Backed off the trailer, and discovered we had no fwd gears. That was an exciting start for the day. Had to adjust shifter cables at the dock. Then idled out and discovered port...

    I'm only 52. But I doubled down on my 20's and ended up requiring more $tainless hardware within myself than we have in tubing on this project. Now the parts that ain't stainless seem to be quicky wearing out. Bending like a pretzel too long, I'm likely to kink a hose and pop a clot...

    Found the other leak, closer to the outside. Looks like diegrinder tracks... Lesson learned, don't buy your alum tube from Home Depot. No matter how big of rush your in.. Big shout out to Justin @ JH Diesel for finding me a new helper to wrap up these small jobs. My Buckeye buddy had to...

    No water in these closed loop system. Using Evan's Heavy Duty Waterless Coolant, which has a 370F boiling point. Addresses the hot spots inside the heads at high HP, and typically only makes 5psi or less on the system. Downside, those drips are 10cent each... Sent from a reclined position...

    I pumped them up this morning with a bicycle pump on the bench. , look good at about 5 PSI. Once I bolt them up Where the washer can't push out, I'll give him the full test.. So far 100%... Sent from a reclined position using Tapatalk

    What to do when you find a leak inside the coolant reservoir tank mounting tubes?? Both tubes were welded on the inside before assembly so the mounting surface would be smooth. The one place ya may as well start over, because it will save time.. But thankfully someone invented JB Weld. And SS...

    Yep that's the one I needed. Many thanks. :) Went with the two pin style because regulator hot position cleared these exhaust manifolds better after I re-clocked the housing. Since my buddy left the dealership and went out on his own, lost my TIS access. I tried to talk some sense into him... lol

    Need a hand with a wiring diagram if anyone has it. Looking for pinout on the two wire plug of the std LMM alternator. That one seems to be missing from my stack. I purchased two GM pigtails kits, so don't have wire colors to match up and google just pissing me off the more I search for it.. :mad:

    If I can push a LMM into the 22-24 range empty, there is no good reason this pig can't get 17-19 empty. Shes home and I'm sweating like a pig already. Sent from a reclined position using Tapatalk
