Did you go get Cliff's old motor?
:smile26: crazy.gif

If Cliff had that mill, it would still be going strong. 

BTW, nice 305s. 

Lol...I doubt even that motor would hold up to running without oil.

I was out there cleaning my 10 qt pan thinging about that little drain hose,,gonna make sure mine is tight and zip tied to stuff so it dont get a chance to rub a hole in it!

Also cant decide what color to paint the pan??? i mean hell you dont see a whole bunch of it when you got everything in place,,right now its bare aluminum,,well and some old black paint we are cleaning off :grin:  May just go ahead and paint it Yellow Lemon ice like the block! Least i will be able to see if i got any oil leaks,,,how common is that in a jet boat :grin: :grin: :grin:
