Funny though...you live right on the river yet you never boat.

Or your at least not inviting me.



I wouldn't want to see a fat, white guy on a wakeboard either.

Nice. We had a '72 Nautique when I was a kid. That thing threw a killer wakeboard wake. Too bad everyone only wanted flat slalom/barefoot wakes back then. That thing pulled like a freight train. We yanked the pylon out of the floor trying to deepwater 6 skiers at one time. I'd love to have that boat back.

That boat doesn't make very good wakes. I guess its one of the best boats to ski behind.

Its kinda funny you like that window, I hate it. It does nothing of use, makes noise and sticks out like it does. I don't mind it I guess but I'd rather the real window be there.

I'm not doing anything for a few days..... I managed to pull a muscle in my back, can't even move really.. my whole left back side muscle from the middle of my ribs down to my tail bone across to me pelvic bone. Killing me... :fuu:

Looking real good man. I want something better than a 32/36 for my L20. But finances won't allow that right now.

Let us know how it is when it gets dialed in.

I will testify that this truck runs like a fucking champ!
I'm thinking the carbs are damn near dialed when installed.

Kevin's motor is pretty mean.
L20B. 86mm flat tops. Cammed out U67.
It needed those carbs.

Sorry it's been a while guys I don't have a good way to get online and really I'm surprised i'm on the computer i'm on.
It's a POS!


Ive been having troubles with the wiring in Master Chief the past week or so,
what was going on is when I'd turn me key the far left fuse would blow, I was some how about to fix it by wiggling the fuse box.
dropped in a new 10 amp fuse and off I went. the next few days were fine no problems, Oh by the way the fuse blowing means i havn't any blinkers.
Well at lunch about 4 days ago I was coming back from getting chicken, as I left i made a right hand turn with my blinker on and hit a few bumps and....
by by blinkers... Flatcat and I i were able to fix it again by i think moving some wires and fixing a ground wire, we fixed it tested all the lights every light work.
I left his place made a left.... hit some bumps... by blinkers...


So I took may dash off a started inspecting wires, found and replaces a few wires that just so happen to be my blinkers.
bluhbluh stupid fucking wire that was all melted was touching my dash, along with a few other wires that may have been touching each other.

heres a picture of one wire i replaced. the two others were in almost the same shape. you cant see much here but trust me that wire is fucked.

The wire touching the dash wasn't that bad ha and found pretty easy. Me removing old P.O electrical tape to find Melted touching wired pissed me off like really dude you couldn't make new wires, not just hide melted ones. And he kinda tried to do something about the melted wires and put tape on each melted wire. Also why the fuck! Melting wires? Wtf.

I thought my problem could have been a short at the fuse box so I cleaned that nice in some vinager.
Even though some fuse holders are loose I don't think its that big of a deal. Is it?
