Proof Sean's Saturday dirtywork ala his infamous camera phone...

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

Carb and intake seem good to go. Might be looking for a cam though. John's old drag race buddy's unpacking his trailer 5 years after a nasty accident and told me to hold on buying anything though.

Thanks for putting up the pic Chris. Looks racey huh?

 

[Bobcat]

looks blurry, and I've only got one beer in me!:sifone:

 

[Buoy]

have a few more beers, it'll become crystal clear.

 

[tomcei]

I have 2 cams and a set of pistons as well. one of the cams is a 4/7 swap.
I would be happy to ship them to you if you wanted to have them checked out. there collecting dust over hear.

You'll have to invest a few grand in gold chains, and a beak extension.:biggrinjester:

I just woke up from a nap, so, a little groggy, but the transom kinda looks like an elephant-head.
The lack of exhaust looks like eyes, the drive assy looks like a trunk, and the tabs look like tusks.

No, I haven't been smoking anything, or taking anything.
Just waking up still.

Ah come'on man, don't take it personal.
Ya know I love ya like a red-headed step-child.:sifone:

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

OK so here's some pictures to give us our starting point and show a little progress from the weekend...

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

Keep in mind that this boat was towed 3000 miles without a cover when you look at the bilge. It started cleaning up with very minimal effort.

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

Couple more... Haven't tried to tackle the 5200 yet.

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

And Chris, I wouldn't normally show the "dirty" pics, but it makes it look like I got more accomplished!

Basically I cleaned the floor by standing on those west marine oil eater towels while I was unbolting stuff... Hahaha.

 

[tomcei]

now were talkin:sifone:

Thanks Tom! I'm going to see what Howard has kicking around local then I'll give you a shout! You're the man! :26:

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

Looks like Valley Head Service is going to save the complete rotating assy and block. That's really good news since two weeks ago, it looked like I was making a really cool coffee table! So I think I'm just going to need a cam and some valvetrain stuff. Man, what a load off my mind... :sifone:

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

And if any of you guys were into drag racing in the '70s, that is THE Valley Head Service. Kinda geeked about having those guys mess with the motor from a historical standpoint. Kittycat John's funny, he used to work there and is totally nonplussed by the whole thing.

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

I was also looking at switching to the 360 wingplates, but my buddy just suggested these...

Then I could put my 280 tabs and pumps on the 24...

I just wish I had more time to clean it (and the "cover-alive") for you.
