Looks like I might have the 502's sold and looking for some low cost no thrills 454 long blocks to put in..
Anybody?????



johnny

I might not be getting out, I have put the motors for sale on a few boards and getting alot of interest.
Also found a few "sets" of 454's that are affordable if I sell my motors.
They are below the...

The least Ican do is re-ring them and new bearings/gaskets...
Who knows how long that will last and to tell you the truth I do not have the cash for that right now.

I am thinking of just selling...

I have come to understand, I cannot afford to rebuild my Gen 6 motors.
One was running when pulled and other had a rod bearing go out.
I bought a 10/10 polished/fluxed crank and told the rods were...

Nice hull..
I rather trade then sell, unless you have nothing to trade and want it.
Needs wood work deck and other/ some soft spots on floor
Talked to a few more knowledgeable on the boards and...

Johnny

Title says it all.
What have you got, I do not have alot of cash and looking at another Desert Storm go by with out me there is painfull.
You know the kind of pain you don't want others to see.
I...

WOW,
Tank that whole deal is impressive !!!!

Good luck and have fun, maybe one day things will go right for me and will surprize you...

OK, uhhhh
Not much but ...
1 42' barge
2 18' jet boats
2 16' cedar strip caneos
1 sea doo

I still want a flat bottom or hydro

Here is the barge

Yea, losing the job might have been a good thing if I can find one here...
I am supposed to interveiwing in Long Beach this week..
So, if thats the case and I can get this one, it will be farther...

Already did, sold one blower and traded the other for a nice sanger super jet.

Johnny

I agree this boat will never be a fast boat, it was not what I was looking for when I found it.
Both 502's were pulled and tranny's.
the one 502 had a bad bearing... why??? don't know.
Trannies...

Yea, its a toss up

One hand I want to keep it and on the other... well its just another hobby.
I have 2 other boats, both small jet boats.

Problem is, if I ever want this type a boat again, I...

Yea, that is what I am thinking,
Some are interested in it since I have posted before I was not working and thinking of selling it. It is not a burden as storage is 85 bucks a month.
it is one of...

I still have not totaly decided to sell it, I have a couple of people interested,
that is why I posted, do I sell? (and for how much).
Or wait till my life gets better and put the motors I have in...

Yea, but if you had a couple of BBC's setting around and put them in this hull, you could be on the water with a 42' boat for under 20k.
How many 42' boats do you see for this price?
Now even if...

will tell you one thing
I bet I took a couple thousand pounds out of it, and will only put half of that back in it.
Built very heavy in the cabin..

Why they used such heavy stuff I do not know,...

Again, I do not know...
I have talked to the guy who has blown motors and he said around 85 is where it is with those.
Since I have had it the only time I went to take it out it had the motor...

I started to redo the cabin as it had to be stripped, I enlarged the bathroom so my wife would like it better.

But with not working, it is unfair to keep pulling money out of savings and paying...
