If so, what'd he say do? You have a simple setup. He should be able to tell you EXACTLY what to run within an 1/8th of a turn on the screws.

The bottom line (IMO) is that nothing on the market can compete with the bonding and sealing characteristics of ThreeBond 1211. It's just the best product available currently. It's a little pricey, but a tube will seal about a million engines. All the others work ok in certain situations, but...

You're right. I don't think most people realize it, but the rivets are only there to hold things in place until the adhesive cures. The problem with the OE joint is the primer used on the aluminum. The adhesive usually doesn't let go. The primer on the metal does and then the pole fails...

IMO, TL is FAR easier to work on and keep running than OE charging. MUCH easier to troubleshoot if/when you have issues. Most of the dead boats I saw in Daytona had charging systems. I personally wouldn't send it to JSS to get it setup. If you can solder bullet connectors you can do what he...

Art is the one with the skills. I'm just the simple assembly man. I do try to be a good student, though.:wink:

I thught it ran ok for it being the first time out. I think when we have some tuning time on it, it's gonna run pretty good. Probably have to do some tweaking on the nozzle sizes and water routing/flow. I think it has potential anyway. Glad it's about broken in so we can get that smelly...

As long as you talk to him beforehand, he can probably turn it around in a day or two. One day shipping. Send it next monday ride it on friday.:cool:

Since you're where you are, save some shipping time and money and send it to Randy!:Banane19: WATCON.COM 6487 Seabeck Hwy NW Bremerton WA 98312 Phone: (360) 692-3492 Fax: (360) 692-2285

There are couple of companies making aluminum sleeves that install similarly to cast iron sleeves and then are plated. They work very well, but they typically gall when installed and are tough to remove if needed. Nicasil is nice, but I'd agree that for what we're doing probably not worth the...

WOW! Is it a prototype or something? The shape is nice(24/7) but the finish looks pretty unrefined.

I think I paid $50ish(Ebay) plus shipping for mine a few years ago.

What kind of igniton is this? I'm assuming analog or single channel digital since the -5 comment? If this is a TL system, what made you decide to use 23 deg as your initial timing?

Art told me today that there was something even cooler from Skat on the way to him too!:naughty: There's even cooler stuff coming too.:cool2: Came in yesterday! Gonna get it assembled in the next week or so. He's super stoked.

AVgas is better than blowing up your motor but you leave a lot of power on the table when you use it instead of a good race gas.

I got that straight from the horses mouth. If you look at the comparison chart on their website it shows the difference in back to back testing against "brand O". I always thought them calling it "brand O" was pretty funny.:silly: I seriously don't care what anyone runs for a battery, but IN...

You are correct. Jetworks imports their batteries from Japan. They've had them made in Japan since way back in the mid nineties. When you have batteries made to order you're given case and terminal choices. Certain cases are compatable with certain terminals. The cheap batteries linked in the...

Test tank. He can usually get things VERY close with power tuning.:fing02:

Cool! Here's a pic(thanks to Ronny) of your girl on my boat!:fing02:

Get any pics yet?
