I will entertain offers on this guys.

Ahhhh. Darn leaf on bottom pic. Here a clean one. What do you guys think? Boat, motor, stand, radio, painted and ready to run, $700 sound about right?

Boat pics. Ill get some pics of the cmb 90 and starter box later today. Thanks.

Should get some pics tomorrow. Sorry for the slow response but my dad passed away and we're busy picking up the pieces. Taking a day off for a little me time. Thanks guys for the interest and kind words!

Folks, It breaks my heart to say that I'm getting out of the hobby. Three small kids and no time. Id like to get an idea of what some of that stuff i have is worth some advice on where to post it for sale (besides here). 1) 45 hydro. My own design (I have an engineering degree and have...

Depends on the application and how you prop out your boats. If you lug a bigger prop (diameter and pitch) you could run it at 10-5/8 " from plug to weld on the pipe. This was on an old 45 rigger pulling a 1462 prop. The pipe got shorter and shorter but pulling smaller diameter props like...

I great place to look when you get into a pickle like this one is www.bleepingcomputer.com It's FREE (donations only) go under forums and search for the virus name you see popping up. Chances are they already have a fix listed. If not you can post your own question and they will walk you...

Rest in peace Roy. Lots of good memories at the old pond in Madisonville racing 40 hyro.

YUP a midway support would be recommended to limit the amplitude of the vibration. The engine vibration is only one part. The boat will be running in choppy water at high speed and that will shake/jar the sugger out of the boat. A greesed nylon guide tied to that center rib should do nicely...

you can get that top flight balancer to work but you have to take care in the setup. First thing is to reduce the distance between the magnets and the rod to a minimum. you want both magnets pulling almost equally strong against the rod so it doesn't press hard into either side and but lightly...

Which particular numbers and how precise do you need them?

Yup 3A usually gets it for most plugs. Didn't know if you were running some ultra cold plugs that would need 4+a to glow hot. One last test is to fill an old plug with some water and see if it can burn off the water. When the plug is not lit it looks like a much smaller resistor than 0.5 ohms...

Looks like a pretty good sized module so they might have enough output capacitance to deal with the output current pulses. DC-DC switcher is the way to go anyway so you don't generate so much heat. Good luck.

Were you able to get 5A from it for your cold plugs?

The HR will have much higher timing than the original gold head EVO. if you don't machine the block to match the ports you'll have some restrctions to the flow. Be carefull you don't raise the block passage height so high that you go through the outside of the block though. Best P/S I found...
