Thanks...............got no idea really......when we finally got squared away yesterday and took off to Tower Park w/full tanks & boatload o peeps we cruised about 50-60. Turned it up to about 110 down Holland Cut...... lots left on the stick but don't like to push any harder w/riders......we still got a lot to learn about set-up & such but I shit you not, this is one sweeeeeeeet ride. Must have been hard for Rock-it to send this one to a new home :cry:

Nah Ken your down there with me. Bob does that blower do laundry too? :p Looks good. sorry I missed out on the trip. Np you may have launched with the drian plugs in but no one told you I took out 3 spark plugs. Thats the only way to keep up with you guys anymore. I got one more moth until I get weekends off. then its on like DONKY KONG! You know I seem to always have some parts for these carboats lying around. I have a couple of new cap and rotors and a couple of distributers. Just call me and ask and if I am not home DR has a opener for my garage. Fittings, lines, oil, fuel, I even have a complete motor if needed, (with pullies that work).
Glad it started working out for you at the end of the day. Lets make another small group for a junk test. I got some bugs to work out befor we all get together and so does OC and I am sure there are others. Lets get a date for junk test two.

NP & D-21 w/OC as back-up got it figured out where we went wrong and got us running but we still got to do some fine tuning.

Hope you didn't hurt the motor Don. That reminds me to remind you all to make sure you are jetted big enough in this good air we have at this time of year. I checked it the other day here at home and the corrected altitude density was about 250'. That compares to around 3,000' that we normally see on the delta later in the summer. I'm not a great tune up guy but I would guess that means that we might need about 2 to 3 jet sizes larger for the good air IF we are tuned correctly for 3,000' summer air. On the other hand if we are running fat during the hotter summer days, we ought to be able to make some good power in this air. :)
I might try to hook up with you guys on the next delta run if the weather is half way decent. I need to see if my junk will run since the motor rebuild and also take some block water pressure readings. My motor builder thinks that the water pressure was too low at WOT and that was why my motor was detonating last year. :rolleyes:

I dont think so. I will do a leak downa dn comp test today. i lost a main fuel pump and that motor was popping at about 2500-3000 when coming home. sounded like a lean pop but hard to tell if it was coming through the carb or exhaust. I need the pump to check it out.

Anybody remember how to get the oil filter off, its been so long since I worked on my ride that I cant remember if its righty tighty-lefty loosy or if I have it all backwards? :rollside:
Hey Bob, at 10lbs are you still running on pump gas? Is the static C.R. low enough? Just wondering if you are gonna try to tune to run wfo on pump gas or going for the whole enchilada.
Hope to see you guys soon.
If anybody is bored on Saturday evening run down to Chowchilla, I will be racing my new car. Races at 6:30 pm. I drove down to Bakerfield this last saturday and raced their season opener and finished a strong 4th place. Not bad for a rookie in a new car.

Troy, I think it's lefty loosey, but I got a bigazzed pipe wrench if you need it.
No, on the pump gas....static @ 7.5 prolly close to OK on pump gas but we are going to ease into that....learn a little more about it first. No whole enchilada for me....baby steps...I think we over detuned at first and the only other pulley combination we could come up w/Saturday put us at 10 lbs we ran 110 sport gas but did'nt push her hard. Just a trial run to see if we could make it to Tower Park for drinks (Mission accomplished) ;) :D

Terry thanks for the good smooth dry ride. that fountain cuts the rough bitchen. the rough water was fun to be in and watch others in. It was good to see eveyone waiting around the courner for all to catch up and stay together. NP thanks for being clean up man this time. I see you just swept up one boat this time. What gives, did Bob run out of gas?? :rolleyes:

Howard, upon further review from the medical staff, it appears a roller gave up, dropped down on the camshaft and ate it up. We will be pulling the motor this weekend to look for collateral damage. Hopefully, with luck, the DC-Rock-it-Bobinator-purple-sled will return to action soon :cry: :cry: :cry: Now, I need to go contemplate returning to the dark side :notam: :coffeycup wacka.wacka.wacka.

He says "No way Bob, that motor is brand new and still under warantee. It should no way have broken, we will fix it." So how's that for a right on guy.

I really feel rotton that my old sled broke . Just goes to show ,you can use the best parts made and still they break. But now Bob will have a NEW NEW !!! motor to abuse. I have always stood behind everthing I do , wheather its boats or the homes I build up here. Our new SL 44 will have the same warrenty with out a question.

The next weekend ( May 4-7 ) I will be at the Big Cat Run at I think its called Suger Barge . Will be at the dock for demo rides and info on the new SL 44.
I can be reached anytime at 541-660-1443 for any info. I will have this cell with me all the time now.

Bob sorry to hear about the break down. Wayne may ramble on alot but he is a upstanding individual. I have come to know him over the years and he is a stand up guy and not a bad person to know. :) I still need to do a test run to beat out the bugs in mine. If the rain ever lets up I'm in the water. How long do you predict your down time will be, Bob?
