"Brand New" isn't what I'm looking for. Just thinking about keeping 'em somewhat noticeable. I clicked on the link (you provided) and all I got out of it so far is the guy running a thermostat. Who the f--- runs a thermostat in a boat ? I've ran the boat once with the new Headers. Dry of course...
My 454 LS6 is 60 over , 11 1/4 to 1, don't remember the cam specs but I remember 630 was in there and the shop referred to it as a V-drive cam(non Roller) solid lifters, Roller Rockers, 990 Heads. Shop said it was about 650 HP.
Just bought a set of Basset Headers (which I paid too much for)...
water injected headers withe the basset T valve and the lines feeding both headers. How are you running your lines with the harmonic balancer in the way.
Give up at speed ? I said it starts to porpoise at 70+. And I or anybody that rides in it do not have a PROBLEM with it. Don't jump to conclusions that the boat is gonna break apart. I've had the boat over 40 years so I aint no rookie. I just putt around the delta and ski as much as...
Yeah, ok...I think I'll give Basset A call and see how much they'll make A sucker out of me this time, after paying $1900 for my Headers. Thanks for the pics.
I just bought some new Bassets (the long ones) and need some ideas on how to secure 'em and prevent 'em from cracking later on down the road. (I mean River)
I took my motor to these guys from the time they opened their shop in Pacheco, CA . up until they called it quits. Great guys , Good 'ol days. I'm trying to figure out how many seasons my motor has since the last rebuild which was done during the last days before they shut down.
I know...
The lockout handle that allows you to take your foot off the cavitation peddle does not work . i think i needto open up the unit and inspect but not sure if i have to release the springs for the cavitation plate. I've had this boat since 1978. Never had to mess with cav plate.
I've replaced the the outside drain plugs (1 inch) but can't find a center replacement plug which is slightly bigger on a '72 Sanger Bubble Deck. Center plug is working but the rubber shows cracks when tightening. Lol. I'm sure alot of guys wish this was their only problem ! Lol
