Thanks Ross,

I've got another smaller photo and it looks to have vertical and horizontal ribs around the thrust housing similar to my current red motor one. Here's hoping! I'll find out Saturday when I pick it up. Owner is ex president of the SSBOC and knows of some of the history on my boat too.

A big win on Ebay yesterday as I snapped up another Grey for a good price. This ones from a 62 Seacraft but the front housing doesn't have "Seacraft" cast into it. I'm assuming not all did???? My current one on the red motor doesn't either but its a later retro fit. The Tawco stuff will be...

Thanks Greg. Pictures are deceiving though. There's lots more to be done when you see it close up!

Well at last some success with overcoming the flat spot. I managed to acquire an adapter to fit SU's to the Weber manifold and fitted two HIF6 units. A few test and tune runs at Glenmaggie and we are wrapped with the outcome. It pulls cleanly and hard right from idle to full speed. Now I only have t...

We discussed all those points today Greg. I'll pull the carb off and rebuild it. The problem is I don't fully understand how it works. I don't even know if it is the carb. I wish I could sell it. I've been trying for a while now. I'll end up giving it to the powerhouse museum. That's where it belon...

Spoke to Glen (GDBC) today and its open to all boat types, not just racers. We're attending.
