So I decided I would run up to hydrotec and have them double check the measurements that the orielys guy gave me... turns out he measured totally wrong. the bearings are the same size. the metal ring is bigger on the the new bearing though so they pulled the ring off the old bearing and put it on the new one.

and now I have an assembled bottom end. the top end should go together friday night.

alright I put together a little leak down kit this morning. all I used was a bike inner tube, a $4 tire gauge from walmart and a little brass fitting. I had a little leak on one of my inner tube seals on the bpipe manifold the first time so I put some grease on there and did it again. It didn't drop at all after 15 minutes the second time around. Thanks again kawijunki for the tips. I am hoping to have it on the water in a week.

well I have the water box in and most of the other little in hull stuff done. The motor is about ready to drop in I think. the carbs are rejetted and ready to go. It should go pretty quick from this point on I think.

it wasn't as black as I would have liked. I ordered this one about 2 days to soon though. I found a paint that will stick to it. I will probably post it for sale once I get it painted.
