    Document us a build on that motor Fast Fred, from start to finish, after all it's going to be another long winter.
    P.S. Did you find it at the bottom of Chesapeake Bay? Not that there is anything wrong with that.

    We used to call power heads like that "submarines". But, like the man said, it's gonna be a loooong winter (dang it!)

    ok then, i've tryed to buy a good used cases, got told for 400 bucks you get what you get and thats what you get. so no sale. i've used new, but the cost is big, and in the end i don't think the customer was happy because of the over all cost. any ways once cleaned and .020 over she will be at a good fees-able cost . rules to be followed - what ever i feel like. the goal- to make as much HP as there is to make , to run with and /or by a 31M-FT
