Thanks Marc for bringing this forward. Happy Holidays. Exactly. In theory what I was thinking. Bring the spectators to the race course. Anchor and tie off together a couple dozen barges in the center of the course. Don't know if the barges could remain stable. But you get the...

I do believe that the cylinder bores are nikasil coated. You don't just hone them. You should buy new a piston/ring set and sent it to get re-coated. They will hone the cylinder to fit the new piston at the proper clearance. I have had many a doo cylinder done and it is the only way to...

Add this outdrive to my suggested transom combo and Bammmmmm. See JIMKIDMOTORSPORTS and his 30 Skater. :sifone: http://www.xpowerdrive.com/

Have the best of both worlds. ITS and a 12" setback http://www.everettperformance.com/Zeiger_Performance_marine/Winter_2009/ITS_Extention_Spacer.asp

PM JIMKIDMOTORSPORT on here or over on OSO. He has them on his super sweet 30 Skater.

Trend Performance gave me great service and consulted me on what specific push rod to use for my application. Had no idea that a .135 wall was available for a 3/8 rod. Note: After a change in valve train components, I had to shelve the unused custom rods and go with different lengths...

The trim sender assembly used on the Merc HP helmet consists of several part numbers. See the parts sheet for the Bell Housing (Intergrated and Hi-Performance Transom). Good to note that this sender can be used for either a digital (smartcraft) or analog (std. electric) devices. For those...

Yes. Sy passed along a partner's name to me. I called and hulls over 10 years old can still be insured. Must have a certified surveyor look at your boat (mans or sams). Might be a Markel product.

Update: First, the IMCO gimbal helmet will ONLY fit the IMCO gimbal ring. Next. Both the Merc HP and the IMCO helmets have the smooth pivot bores. Next. Yes, MER is correct. If using the Merc HP helmet, all of the parts needed to use the electric sender is listed on the ITS transom...

New or old program, do you insure the Chris Cat, American Offshore and Awesome group of cats? If yes, then what if the hull is over 10 years old?
