I just walked in the door from getting the merlin ready. Ive rebuilt the accelerator pump assembly and the carb is getting primed over night. Hopefully it will run tommorrow.
The pistons for atomic turned up from america today but i doubt i will get it together. It all has to go to the balancers before i can start screwing it together.
I did pick up my new alloy heads on wed.
Fingers crossed for a start.
I have no idea who is running.
Im sure there will be sevral boats.

Well aggressor fired up first kick this morning and run like a swiss watch.
There was a fuel leak that needed attending to.
I thought great ive finally solved its problem.
I started it again in the arvo and its starving for fuel again.
Its got me baffled.
Im going to drain the tank and see if ive got some sort of blockage.
Maybe a wasp has built a nest somewhere.

I spent an hour this morning on the phone to a merlin carb specialist in the us.
I have a list of things to go through.
If it doesnt work out ill run cassatta.
