When the sky is grey,look out to sea.
When the waves are high and the light is dying,
well raise a glass and think of me...
When I'm home again,
boys, I'll be buying!

Oh sweet! That looks sexy! I see you have a taller flame arrestor on yours. I can't fit a taller one on mine due to the cover clearance but now I'm wondering if mine may be too restrictive. Probably not, but just a thought.
Either way, very nice! I'm looking forward to the video!
Boats are cheap if you do all the work yourself.

"LIFE IS NOT A JOURNEY TO THE GRAVE WITH THE INTENTION OF ARRIVING SAFELY IN A PRETTY AND WELL PRESERVED BODY, BUT RATHER TO SKID IN BROADSIDE, THOROUGHLY USED UP, TOTALLY WORN OUT, AND LOUDLY PROCLAIMING WOW.... WHAT A RIDE !!!"
I know I already posted pics of the motor, but I finally have a little video of our boat at idle to hear the little 289 (link below). I don't know why, but it just makes me feel good to hear it run, so I keep replaying the video clip. My wife was getting some stuff out of the car up in the trailer parking area when I started it up and she said she thought it was a big race boat and then saw me and said out loud "oh...that is OUR boat" LOL
1966 Ford 289 HIPO with heads done by Mondello and an Isky cam (engine originally balanced and blueprinted by Dave Z in southern California). Scotty at Cabo Marine has brought it back to running great.
