We generally rebuilt only there is a leak or the fuel pressure is dropping off.

Tinkerer,
Our experience is with a 30' Scarab so it may vary significantly with your 34'. In the mid-90's we converted from TRS & Mirage props to Stellings Ext boxes, Bravo Drives and Mirage Props....

We use the 14 qt KE cast pan with a Peterson wet sump oil pump. The benefits of any dry sump oil system are that you will likely have less oil interference with the crank and you you can also rig the...

We build from scratch and still didn't do it....seemed like tripping over mouse turds.

Woops...wrong picture, but thr handle on the left is to move the pick up.

Here is another transom PU for the ballast tank. This is an IMCO piece.

Bert,
Here is a form similar to the one we tape to our dash to keep score at the various RPM's and of on the changes made between settings. It is real easy to lose track. You can probably set this...

We did change the paint last year. Last time? :sifone:

Even with the IMCO lowers that are a significant hydrodynamic upgrade to the Bravo lower, the MPH benefits show at 90+ MPH. Our experience with a low factor X and nose cones in the 80 MPH range was...

I will be looking closer when we set the timing than we might have before your post. We are also using the Crane LX-92 coils.

Just re-read the installation directions. Did you notice the connections are different for the Merc distributor (hall effect type) vs a a MSD (magnetic PU type) distributor? Also, maybe a trying a...

No, but you are scaring me. This winter we switched to the Crane boxes and are using locked-out non-marine MSD distributors with dual pick-ups (not going to the second PU). I haven't started the...

Almost finished...for 2009!

It is looking great. Now that you got the red introduced, maybe red bezels?

What is most HP anyone has seen from a single carb NA 454 CI BBC? Any combination at at a max of 8500 RPM.

They are generally just caulked, Fountain could confirm. If so, maybe use a heavy fishing line and saw it off from four sides and then pull the antenna loose by hand. You will need to disconect the...

Consider other belt sources like Peterson Fluid or Jones Racing. $150 is pure Mercury Racing value...

We ran back to back tests within 1 hr with and without the CMI 5" air activated mufflers installed on Sport Tubes. They were tested in the open postion with the majority of the water dumping at the...

Dave,
Mercury sells a specialty grease for stainless fittings (high compression or something) that the guys at Lake X showed me. It is a German made product w/ Merc label that comes in a small...

Rich,
750+ HP NA on pump gas should be a relatively easy conversion using much of your current combination. After 6+ engine builders and 15 yrs I have it pretty well figured out. No matter what you...

Here are two good places to start. www.easternmarine.com and www.championtrailers.com. I ended up with the Kodiak S-CAD disc brakes. I got most of my hard brake lines and fittings from other places...

How many Mystic's have been built?...3 or 4?

We are changing the trailer brakes this winter from 2-axle drum to 3-axle disc. This is on a 10,500 tri-axle aluminum trailer. The drum set up has worked pretty well since 1994. The goal is to move...

Steve,
My KE oil pans are rated at 11 qts (pan with the front mount for the external oil pump) and I run 13 qts including the HP 6 filter. The dip sticks were marked at assembly. Maybe you also have...
