That is 1 killer looking boat! congrats.

[Mike D..]

Is it done yet?
I sent my engine to Greg Anderson after I heard Stanfield is doing yours.
I have had all the rough rigging done and removed for finish, I am having some custom windowing done to rails and motor plates, then it goes to polish and chrome, engine should be here next week. You know how it goes SLOW I have been working on it now about 2 to 3 hours a night and still feel like I have a long ways to go.
Good news is we have all parts to finish,

[Mike D..]

[FuelInMyVeins82]

Boat looks good Mike. Its cool to see all the pickle forks that have come out in the past few years. This summer is going to be sick.

[atxwrangler]

are you going to leave the motor that far forward?:eek:

[Mike D..]

are you going to leave the motor that far forward?:eek:
yes, the motor may move even farther foward, we are thinking with my weight that it may not need to go much further, there are quite a few people that I know that have there motors even farther foward than mine

[Taylorman]

Love the way you did the rail kit on top of the stringers.

[Mike D..]

[QUOTE=cs19;2462956]Is it done yet?
I sent my engine to Greg Anderson
Just got motor, A friend of a friend drove all the way from louisiana to deliver on friday. It sure isn`t pretty but she will sure do the job. I want a set of sheet metal valve covers whos got them ? who does engraving on them ?

I thought it was a big chief deal? Looks nice.
Ask Red Rocket about the valve covers, the guy that does em is out in elsinore some where. We are getting some made from that guy real soon too.

[Taylorman]

What was your motor doing in Louisiana?

[pattymelt18]

polished freeze plugs.... nice touch

[RICKYB]

looking good Mikey you gonna to be out this weekend?

[Mike D..]

I don`t know if I was lied to but I was told that big chief deal wouldn`t do me any good unless I was spinning higher rpm`s. I am sure there is a few people on the boards that has an opinion and I would love to hear them.
Maybe you could get me in touch with red rocket or let him know I would like to order a set. Your help is greatly appreciated

[Mike D..]

What was your motor doing in Louisiana?
How are you?
GS has a friend named Mark who lives in Bossier City, I do believe know we are friends. even though I did drop wake board hitch on his finger, boy it looked like it sure hurts. I bet he is still talking about the river.
long story short, Mark runs hydros, had an extra hydro motor and wanted to sell it, Mark called GS marine and I bought it. Mark is trying to get us out to smokin in the cove. said something about building a hydro to run in the cove.

[Mike D..]

looking good Mikey you gonna to be out this weekend?
Yes, C you there

[Cs19]

big chiefs suck. Where is the nitrous?

[Mike D..]

big chiefs suck. Where is the nitrous?
getting parts daily,

[Cs19]

Without the big chiefs you will be needing a 2nd stage of gas, put it on the list. :)
Which block is that?

[Mike D..]

thought you all would like to see the rails and motor mounts after they have been window out, Now they are off to polisher

Nice looking rail kit by the way.

[cave]

Nice job Mike! There has to be some time involved in that program.

[hallett72]

Hey there MikeD those are some great looking motor mounts. I was wondering did you make them your self and if you did, would you mind passing on a drawing with dimensions or maybe a templete. Or point me in the direction of someone that can. Thanks

[MudPumper]

Sick rails, were they cut with a Plasma or Water Jet???

[SoCal Power]

Nice work Mike, those turned out better than expected. You could be looking at a second career as a custom rigger.

No Way I would loose my a$$, You can`t charge enough for your time, You know:) plus I am a better carpenter.
I made these mounts by hand, then took them to a water jetter, a friend of mine works for a big desert car outfit and he hooked me up with his water jetter. I have patterns made and saved to computer but they will only work in a boat like mine with stringers set at 26inches apart. Call GS marine If you want a set. I know he can get them for a price what it is I don`t know
Hey Baddboyz everything is for sale, Call GS Marine and ask for Greg he can help you with my 19cp. if I sale the boat it will have to go complete.sorry I can`t help but I am going out of country for a while be back in May. If you want a new one So Cal is your guy

Boat looks awsome, go with the short blue scoop... I'm not a big fan of scoops but i've been diggin the short squished looking ones like that blue one.

[Slow Burn]

Don't know if it's that mug in the back ground or what, but the blue looks much cleaner.

[Dogballs]

I'd go with the carbon fiber one, that thing makes a statement and I say ya run it

[ck7684]

Putting a refill station in the garage. Sounds like the whole AHA crew is going to be using a little squeeze when red cup comes to town ;) We need a little help against them there race boats.

[cave]

Real nice set up. I couldnt get any sleep building something that nice. It must be getting close to getting it wet!
Oh, the blue one. Low pro looks real good.

[Mike D..]

after a long weekend of locking my self in a friends shop and walking a marathon from one end to the other, I have finished mounting all of the electronic componets and a few other loose ends. I can`t tell you how many times I have driven to mcfadden dale hardware for one bolt or one nut that you never realized you needed. Lets just say they offered me my own shirt with my name printed a cross the front :D

[RCB19]

Looks nice Mike.

[sanger rat]

DA question of the day. How are you going to vent the gas tank?:confused:

[Mike D..]

DA question of the day. How are you going to vent the gas tank?:confused:
If you look close at the top of the tank there are three plugs, the middle plug will have a vent tube put on it, it is a good question, I had to give my CP a total of a 1/2in of vent per tank. learned that the hard way.
Boat goes to a certain shop this week in long beach where we will plumb it right there on the spot. I will take pics of plumbing when we are done
Quote= RCB19 Looks nice Mike
Thanxs

[Cs19]

Just in time for the june race. :D

How much longer till your rig is done, where are the pics of the new bottom?

[Cs19]

Cant show you those pics..Truth is the bottom is the same other than a different shape on the entry. Im real happy with the way the intake/bottom came out, should work good.
Im just waiting on my hardware from Embee and I should have everything to assemble the engine by tomorrow other than lifters, wont have those for a few more days, new impeller is in the works too.
Hard to say when it will be done but its real close now.

[MudPumper]

Mike, the boat gives me wood. Are you running that old school steering wheel? :D

[Slow Burn]

Progress looks good. From your last comment, it sounds like your not going to be down next weekend?
I was going to show you a new trick I learned???:D
I'll stop by the shop later today...

The new sterring wheel should be here today, that old school sterring wheel just doesn`t go with boat
Please show me your new trick I will be there with or without new boat, A little cocky are we is it time, are you ready? are you sure you have enough seat time? Then next weekend it is!

[Taylorman]

Whats the air bottle in the left rear for?

[HBjet]

Whats the air bottle in the left rear for?
For the pop-off would be my guess.
Looks real nice!
Is this going to be a river boat or a race boat? :)

[BrendellaJet]

Mike D I've got some grommets for 1/4 inch material that would help protect your wiring if you are interested.

[pattymelt18]

Why 2 fuel pumps is one and auxilary for the nirous or will it always be on it seems that just one of those magna fuels would be enuff but just a question.

I hope it will be a dual purpose boat, I plan on running it on the river and attending a few races at njba. I only have one problem I love my CP on the river but I have been told after I get in the tunnel I will never get out. If that be the case I will sell the CP and use the tunnel on the river.
Pattymelt I have a good friend that sets up Nos systems for A lot of drag car applications, I have let him design the system and in doing so he felt that the direction we are headed in that we need a large volume pump,just for the nos. So one pump is for nos and one for the motor.

[Mike D..]

Nice boat, the tribal flames are timeless:D
Thanxs Balls ,I don`t know if you know, but the boys at Lavey layed her up, Lavey did a great job, they even put some ghost flames in the gel. Very Talented Shop.

We were talking about cruising up one afternoon over the forth most of us will be there the whole week so let me know when you guys will be around. I dont know about running in the lagoon though last time we were there i almost ended up in the little canal at the end.:sqeyes:

[Hallett19]

The carbon fiber anteater scoop looks like it would restrict airflow a tad.... can you say, restrictor plate???

[Cs19]

You know what happens when NOS runs out of fuel right?
Better to be overkill overkill on the fuel system than to graciously pay the engine builders mortgage every month.
Brian
yes I know what happens :sqeyes: overkill is definatly the way to go, no question.
truth is a holley blue could handle that no problem. A 250 shot on a direct port system is equivalent of flowing through a single .079 orifice..

I would never in a million years run a blue for an NOS system, just because of my own experience.
I have had a spare on the shelf I kept in circulation when I was playing with cars all the time. Had to use the spare more than once.
When I rigged the jetboat, I ran a redeundant pump just for that reason. I couldn't call a buddy or the trailer out on Mead. The main pump was just starting to go south on me when I decommissioned the boat. I imagine I'll rig the flat the same way.
Brian

[Cs19]

blues are the most unreliable pump, I agree. Was trying to explain that a low volume pump can handle the fuel demand for a decent shot of nitrous. I run an aeromotive that is the size of a holley blue for my carb and one for nitrous with no problems, I watch nitrous and carb fuel psi on data and its solid.
Sorry about the hijack Mike.

So what does your data aquistion unit monitor ? fuel pressure to motor, fuel pressure to nos silenoids, bowl and intake pressure, speed. Do you look at anything else?

[djdtpr]

I was wondering the same thing like oil pres and oil temp posibly EGT or is that not that important with nos. I know on the dyno you look at all that but was wondering about in the boat.What about cylender head temp? How many things will a data system moniter at one time?

[Cs19]

So what does your data aquistion unit monitor ? fuel pressure to motor, fuel pressure to nos silenoids, bowl and intake pressure, speed. Do you look at anything else?
Ive got a vacuum sensor in the keel which is on the entry going into the intake which tells me if water is making the turn into the pump, engine vacuum, nos fuel pressure, carburator fuel press, inlet press, bowl press, speed, voltage and a wide open throttle indicator. I cant monitor all of this at the same time but I can check any of that stuff when i need to. I move sensors around and check whatever Im interested in at the time.
Danny, you can check any pressures you want oil, fuel, nitrous, boost and EGT if you want.. With the advanced system you can monitor 16 things if i remember correctly.Willis has an EGT set up, maybe he can fill you in a little more. BTW, EGT would be an awesome thing to have on a nitrous motor, the pro mod nos guys tune by EGT's on their data logger.

[cyclone]

just for shits and giggles i checked to see what it costs to upgrade the basic Qwikdata box to the full tilt setup with 8 EGT sensors...$1600 bucks. ouch.
maybe next year. lol

[smokinflatties]

looks good mike wene your first trip to the river with it

Thats cool i didnt know that they had that many different options to check. EGT would be pretty awsome to check it would really help nail a tuneup. It would almost be like a dyno with all the imfo you can get.

Hello people,
When I first started to use the egts as a tuning items, must have burned down several engines because I didn’t know if the sensors were calibrated correctly.
I recall, one burn down was around 1200 degrees and that was a surprise to us. The sensor we were using was not reading correctly. :jawdrop:
:messedup:
Gave it to Jim Brock and he tested it at the track. Brock said it was a 100 degrees off from his sensor and both were made by the same company.
We have found that the Southland Sensors brand is very reliable and the probes are thicker than those that come with the advanced box.
909-590-5054 – call them with the measurements from the header to the thermocouples and they will custom cut your leads.
Very happy with the Southland Sensors brand.
Be sure to use all the knowledge you have stored, don’t relay on the sensors only!!
All header people will tell you that it’s a combination of things as to how the probes where installed, where they are in relationship to the bends in the tubes. (they can't tell you what's a good temp to start at, or where burn down will happen)
We have had good success when the temps are 1450 - 1550 range.

[Mike D..]

It will get wet very soon (before the 4th) hoping to do some secret testing first Don`t tell anybody OK
Willis would it be possible for you to post a few pics of your aquisition set up for the egts

We Are off to the river to see if this old school tug will even float, I will have to post some pics only if she runs. It has been a long week I sure hope it all pays off.

[bahner78]

nice fork

[Pops@Aggressor]

Lot s of hours ahead but what a rush when done. PS when everyone has gone to bed sit in it and run some 7.30s in it and you can hear the Cheer's and feel the Gs to come. Best to Ya.

[Cs19]

7.30's??
Anyone hear if they ran the thing? Hope all is going well Mike!!

[cyclone]

get back to work.

[OverKill]

Cyclone
Squirtcha? and I were talking about you last weekend. He had mentioned your motor and the numbers you were running. So I thought I would ask if you would part with your specs. with me, as this winter will be my first motor build.
I was set back a bit when he said you are running better numbers with out a blower Vs. with one. Im impressed.
OverKill

[cyclone]

It hasn't been easy getting the boat to run better without the blower.
so far i've changed the bottom, reworked the jet pump and switched from an iron blower motor to an aluminum naturally aspirated motor.
the basics of the motor are: 572cid, 12-degree pro filer heads, pro filer hitman single plane intake, quick fuel 1250 cfm carb. the motor is mild enough to run all over the river on pump gas but runs hard enough to be a quick and fun ride. if you want more info on the motor, please call Dave Ebbert at DNE Motorsports in Costa Mesa, CA.
he can give you better info that i can.

HOW DID SHE RUN?

[Mike D..]

We had a very frustrating day on saturday, problems with popoff, Saturday night I removed the valve and put a cover over it, the boat ran real well, by sunday we had boat running as we expected. No nos yet, we are hoping to run the nos next weekend.
I can not believe the difference between the 2 boats, The new boat leaves so much harder than the CP, The ride is so much smoother, Its hard to believe the new boat is faster than my CP with just Carbs.My only regret is I wish I had done this earlier.
http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/500/124_2478.JPG

[TRG]

Damn! that is a FINE lookin' boat Mike!
are you happy with the ride?
Im jonesin' now!

You know I remember calling some guy named danny about how a tunnel handeled,your the one that convinced me into building one:D Do you remember?
Todd I can`t believe i waited so long to do it. I think its going to be perfect for what i want to do with it. Hurry it is your turn to hit the water. Thanx for all the nice compliments
Balls/ the valve covers I got from Red Rocket here on the boards
I plan on running CP one more time over the holidays,I have a special treat for a certain person, seems there is a discrepency on whos boats faster, then its retirerment time. Cp will have a for sale sign on it over the forth

[djdtpr]

You know I remember calling some guy named danny about how a tunnel handeled,your the one that convinced me into building one:D Do you remember?Glad it was all you wre looking fwd to keep us posted on how she runs. I may be rolling up in your area over the fourth hope to see the new ride.

So mike, what boat are you going after before you put the CP up for sale? Always love a good race..........

[sofa king smooth]

The boat I think hes going after is definitely out of aha and has the word slow in his screen name. Or maybe its the shoe,keep us posted on the grudge match.
New boat looks really good can't wait to check it and see it run.

[Slow Burn]

[QUOTE=sofa king smooth;2640041]The boat I think hes going after is definitely out of aha and has the word slow in his screen name.
I'm sure beating Mike was pure luck on my part and I know he wants revenge, but it's been lots of fun given him shit about it. I guess I'll have to take the sand chairs and ice chest out for the grudge match. :D
See ya over the holiday

Well Lets get the record straight first, Why does your motor miss when you leave? Might it be launch control, and diverter is now hydraulic with a stop. What happened to the manual diverter? WOW I do believe a monkey could drive that boat now, all you have to do is push on the gas no driver skills needed. Thats quite a ski boat, Do you have the dyno sheets that you would like to share with us? I expect to see an Ice chect next weekend :boxingguy Oh wg789 Help
it seems that a lot of people have figured out the weak link in the cp, it can not leave from a dead stop, but from a small roll it is deadly, from a roll I put 2 boats on him, So come saturday night we will see WHOs boat is faster, Better bring that big tune up, and your Ice Chest, C you real soon Buddy TIC TOC turn the timing back up, and lean her out, I think I will change a pully just for you,;)

[sofa king smooth]

Dead stops are my cps strong point. See you boys labor day.:D

[HBjet]

it seems that a lot of people have figured out the weak link in the cp, it can not leave from a dead stop
HUH?
My CP and my last boat which was a v-bottom both left hard from a dead stop. Especially against tunnels with similar and slightly more power.
Maybe I should trailer down to Aha to see how all you guys do it! :D

[Slow Burn]

Ok, Captain Sandbar, you can call me the "monkey", who hasn't put his boat on the beach.....:rolleyes:
Just for that comment, I'm turning off the water to my headers next time when we race, from a DEAD stop!
Remember, I get my driving tips from your Master, Shoezami! ....:jawdrop: Did I mention "dead stop"?
No dyno data, just a well built single carb 550 running on pump gas! (directly from a barrel):D
I love this stuff!

[djdtpr]

I guess I'll have to take the sand chairs and ice chest out for the grudge match. :D
See ya over the holiday
You know you are in trouble when the chairs and ice chest come out. :D

[SoCal Power]

SB and MD (or is it MD and SB) you're both my bros., but I can't sit on the fence. Since I can't root for a CP period, I'm rootin' for the tunnel!!!!!
My prediction is that the winner will be Colonel Klink because you both bought hulls from him before I bought my molds :eek:
BTW, the tunnel looks great in the H2O. You did a bitchen job on the whole package.
Okay, now that the tunnel is done (tweaking notwithstanding), get your asses over to my place and help me install this stuff.
http://www.hotboatpics.com/pics/data/500/126977001_Parts.jpg
Parts will be back from anodizer on Friday and picking up hull from interior shop on Sat morning.
I promised my wife a ski ride over the 4th before we sell it and build her tunnel.

Who`s Boat are you driving there Big Kid ?:confused: I think your race teams name needs to be M&D can you guys guess what that stands for !:D YOU ARE RUNNING MY RACE if that boat is as fast as you say it is, it shouldn`t matter how we leave right ?
HBJET: Does that mean your coming down to play? Don`t know you yet but looking forward to meeting you, all of us at AHA are always looking for a little friendly competion. Even if we do get beat from time to time. I will line up with you.

Dead stops are my cps strong point. See you boys labor day.:D
Trust Me we all know, your boat is a dang freak of nature,
I am sure we will c you labor day

Is the 2nd Annual DK18 CP regatta going down again this year?

[Cs19]

it seems that a lot of people have figured out the weak link in the cp, it can not leave from a dead stop, but from a small roll it is deadly
I couldnt disagree more. An 18 CP is DEADLY from a dead stop and is superior to anything else out there in that aspect, a 19 has alot of potential as well. Ive driven 3 different 18s with lightweight high HP engines and all 3 of them left so damn hard it made my head spin, they are untouchable for the first few hundred feet.
example:
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/94faec27-8ac4-4112-8461-9953001e946f.htm
Mike, there is alot left in that 19, a trip to Bako to see what everyone is doing might be something to consider.

Round 3 coming soon, Lets hope we do better than the last 2 years. So who is coming to represent red cup during labor day? I know I can count on you and sofa. I believe I better get the refill station up and runnning quickly before labor day. any red cuppers showing up over the fourth around aha area?
Sure looks like everybody is getting fired up about the up coming weekends, sure is addiciting isn`t it CS you have to be chewing your arm of about now.
I know last year the friday before the 4th weekend I lost my motor. I was about to get wake board boat out and race. I was all restless and irratable while the boys where out there running in the lagoon.

I think some of you guys are miss reading my posts, the week link in my 19 is the leaving from a dead stop, I agree with the 18 leaving hard I believe they are the ultimate 1/8 mile boat.
Back to my boat I have never really worked on part of my program, boat does have launch control just not programed yet, in using launch it will eliminate pump slip. My boat is very heavy and with blower and inter cooler it is a tank. Like I said a page back I have put together a few things that should improve upon this problem but I will never get rid of the weight. We will surely see come saturday

Not good for mine it needs to stretch its legs a little to really get movin. Looks like ill bring the wacker. Anyone runnin around 80.

[sofa king smooth]

WATER WHEEL is the place! Stretch your legs as long as you can hold it down.
You can launch at water wheel just can't park your trailer there. Have to park it outside the park on the dirt road.

[Johnwithjm]

I will be down there to watch all the fast guys since my pump will not be ready. I want to see what the shut down is like.

That channel has only room for one boat so you better be out in front.

[djdtpr]

Well that leaves me on the beach! Hope the wacker comes up fast enough i might ought to put a two speed hydrolic pump motor to get it up faster.

[FuelInMyVeins82]

I'll be out to play labor day and the fourth. Looking forward to both!!!

[Slow Burn]

I think what Mike was trying to say is that HIS CP doesn't leave as hard as he'd like or as hard as some of other CP's.
Mike has unbelievable top speed but has never needed to launch great, because he can usually catch you. . (weight could be an issue).
My boat on the other hand was designed to run QUICK, focusing on the launch and of course having enough mph to stay out in front.
I have to agree with Sofa and CS19 that if set up correctly, there's not much out there that will leave harder.
When Mike and I raced from a dead stop, I had 2 boats almost instanly and he had to play catch-up. When we raced from a 20mph roll, he pulled away from 1/2 track on and beat me by more than 1 boat. (yes 1 boat):D
Just my .02

[blue wonder]

Not good for mine it needs to stretch its legs a little to really get movin. Looks like ill bring the wacker. Anyone runnin around 80.
10-4 on the 80 mph race.....i got one for ya well race from dam to dam and whoever can hold the most ice chests, ez-up's, lawn chairs, bbq grills, and stripper poles will win....im in how about you?????

Scott your all over the place tonight, you seem to be a man on a mission, did you buy something we need to know about? or are you just the new promoter for sat night run what you brung. either way good to see you here
No I have nothing up my sleve YET. I am just trying to get these kids down to the fast neck of the woods. But I think most of them are SCARED!

OUCH !

[Cs19]

OUCH !
We considered jumping him in to red cup at the last race but he just didnt make the cut, the generator was a real problem.
There are only a few boats on the team at this point although we are getting about a dozen applications daily.

[cyclone]

dont mind chris. he's just pissed that his bday happens to be on a monumental river weekend and he's got no boat to drive. :eek:

[HBjet]

HBJET: Does that mean your coming down to play? Don`t know you yet but looking forward to meeting you, all of us at AHA are always looking for a little friendly competion. Even if we do get beat from time to time. I will line up with you.
You won't all get beat, it will be cool to just have a lot of nice hardware all in one spot... So yeah, I will be down there all day Saturday with a few others... should be a good time.

What's wrong CS? He was hung over on Saturday and Sunday. That has to count for something... You know how Mike rolls when it comes to staying out late? He doubled his efforts at the last race for sure. The loud genny was so he could stay awake!

[blue wonder]

[sofa king smooth]

[sofa king smooth]

That makes two of us. But in the ice chest race i will dominate.

[djdtpr]

We need to go from a roll though the wacker takes a little more than a jet to get going. Looks like i will be mixing some special race gas coctail in one tank just for you:D Bring it and you to will do a Double Take!!!!!!

That whole going out first round in both classes thing just doesnt fly in RCR. Sorry and thanks for trying out. :p

[HBjet]

I do not know what is more mini truck...
Cyclones past, or Team RCR?
