A collet would be a great way to go. But if the lathe has a 3 jaw already on it who would want to remove it for that simple task? That's what...
I use Cerro low melt to hold small castings in my lathe.
I don't want to spam but you did ask. I make hose fittings and DOT brake hoses. I have piles of different fittings. Figure out what size banjo...
Not the guys he's talking about. Frank built a one off downhill bike for me a long time ago. He did all the machine work too. It was one sexy...
yeah, it don't get much better then this as far as custom boats go if you ask me. [IMG]
The great thing about the v drive and jet deals is they really have not changed that much over the years. There has been some stunning retores and...
Pete also has the OG molds for the Hondo HX511T and the Cole TR2. I just happen to have some photos of that Potty E boat.
Nice thread and noticed a few from some other forums. If you guys don't know there is a drag boat race at Lake Elsinore, CA on March 21, 22nd....
Do not count on friends to help you make it. Unless you count them "borrowing" your mig welder, some WD40 and helping themselves to your shop...
I sell at every Long Beach and Pomona swaps and have for about 7 years or so. I've been going to them for at least 25 years. I don't see them...
ah ha, I remember when that boat was for sale. Who could forget that steering wheel. lol You should get some photos of the K69 "Freedom"...
That looks like a Hondo sprint. Are you running off the snout circle boat style? I used to race a Hondo HX511T runnerbottom back when I wanted...
This is how they sound when they run in the 6's. :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RexitmBtMJo</EMBED>
gotta love that. does he have a web site that I could graze? Did a quick google and didn't find it.
check out some of the LED stuff over the HID. You can get lots of light out of those deals these days.
Moly Dee for me. I use it every day. [IMG]
The size more then anything. Most don't want a monster. I bet if it was a 12X36 it would have sold right away. And it is sad to say with all...
I'd run it on a static phase converter for now. They work fine for machines like that. They say you loose some torque but trust me, you won't...
Off the top of my head they cost well under 2 bucks for steel zink, alum (blue or red). I do have them in stainless also but those cost more....
yup, that's a common valve found in boats. Heck that looks like a ski tow that it's attached to. Anyway it's made by Attwood. ATT 14465-1...
This is some solid advice. The thread is a 9/16-18 straight. Some use a -6 to -6ORB (o ring boss) fitting but that's still not correct. The T350...
I don't know why anyone would get pissed about a fake. Heck, sounds like easy pickens for the guy with the real deal when he pairs up against ya....
I donno, I think injectors are much easier to tune myself. Carbs have 4 jets, power valve, air bleeds and this and that. Injector just has a...
I made this one for a guys Jag. Whacked the center out of a junk stock wheel. Little slice and dice with some tig welding and here it is....
I'd be fabbing up some new adapters that would fit. Then wack those other carb flanges off and weld the new ones on.
an old Merc Mark 25 would be the perfect engine for that boat. Nice job man
Rayson Craft's, Spico's, Wickens, Patterson's, Halletts just to name a few.

I'll be in the Sweet Performance booth in row 22 space 20. Swing by and check out these brake hoses we're making. Discounts given to all orders...
I saw a 55 the other day set up Gasser style. Straight axle, slicks on the rear and some Hilborn's sticking out of the hood. It sounded mean...
