Motor looks VERY good. Nice work Brent.

What type of paint is that? It looks similar to what I used to paint my roomates 550 motor (the budget ski) The stuff I used was high temp engine paint from Advance Auto I believe....

Paint those bed plates black while your waiting for parts :biggthumpup:

What kind of nuts do you use the "GAY sockets" on?

 

[h2odesperado]

:haha: :haha: :haha: :haha:


i think i know what is meant by that but that is hilarious!

 

[D Slicker]

They dont work as well as straight socket's.

 

[adet16v]

gay sockets = standard/US sockets. I much prefer metric. Its f'ing annoying trying to figure out size differences... 7/32 3/16...

OK Im just lazy when it comes to figuring it out.

Gay sockets, NOT THAT THERES ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT!

While I am waiting for my reeds and dome I decided to put my TBM cone and pump in the ski. The impeller is a 13/16 concord cut back 3mm
