I came to the SDBA race to help my cuz with his boat. We are doing good so far.

Thread on PB said there was  blow over down there today and the driver did not survive.  Did you hear anything about it?

Before I tried to bolt the pump in the boat I tried to make sure my bowl would go on it. It wouldn't someone had hit the shaft with a hammer or something and mushroomed it so I had to dress that end of the shaft. Then I prep  the bottom of the pump and intake and put silicone on the intake. When I tried to put the pump in the driveshaft went 1/4 of the way on and stuck! I almost couldn't get it back off. Then I had to clean the silicone off and now I have to dress the splines in the front of the pumpshaft!

Step away from the project and take a breath!!!

When something like that happens to me, it's so frustrating. I push away from the project, take a breather and then work on it again the next say. For some reason it always works out for me the next day.....not sure why though. lol.

That's what I did last night. I opened a beer lit a smoke and looked at the shaft then locked the garage and went in the house.
