Well I got it together. I've got a little too much clearance with no shims so I gotta have some taken off the eye of the impeller. I'll drop it at the machine shop tomorrow. Bajajet stopped by today to check it out. We'd never met so it was kinda cool.

Duane from htp where I got my parts gave me some real good advice on how to set it up with the ultimate wear ring. Once its set up right and worn in it should end up with zero clerance under load and create what he calls "The real seal". Sounded pretty scientific so I'm goin with it. he he he

WFO don't feel too bad. My pump's apart again. Needs MORE shaft and impeller work. Damn 30 yr. old crap. I take 1 step ahead and go 2 steps back. You know how it is.
Get that thing done so we can see the "SECRET" project. he he he

Its all good bro....Remember I've got 3 boats right now that ALL need to go bye-bye....Someday I'm gonna sell that v-drive cruiser and that will help a lot. When you see the project. I think you will be blown away...but thats a lot of money away from now...keep it real bro...Mark

WFO,
Unbenounced to you I have sent spies to uncover the "SECRET" project. After weeks of survelance and many of my $$$$ this is what they brought me.

If you want some advice on the steering control let me know. he he he
Looks pretty FAST to me. I thought the motor would be "BIGGER". I don't see how you'll be able to crack the 150 mph barrier with that small of a motor. lol Let me know if you need any tech advice. I got an eggbeater in the kitchen drawer and I'm sure I can equate the principal into real time. STOMPIN BRO!!!!!!
