Well I'm doing some mods to that new pump before I can take it to the polisher, I still need to get that other motor apart to see what's wrong with it. but the good news is I'm done working on that beach house and can now finish my boat.

went and looked at the repair job Saturday and Donnie did and awesome job with the glass and gel coat repair You can not even see where it was messed up. We are just waiting for the rub rail and the cockpit trim from cali. Should be completed this week hopefully. I really want to get started on the dess up and motor work before spring gets here.

Well Looks like I'm going to build one last olds motor, my old 463 is comming out of retirement and going into the Hondo, I pulled my other motor that I was going to freshin up and drop in, but I took a dump last time I took it out, If anyone needs a Big Block boat ancor I have one real cheep :smile23: :smile23: :smile23:

I didn't think you were going to find good news under the oil pan after having a bilge full of oil on that last trip , but that is really bad . At least you still have a decent pair of heads to put on the other motor though .
