Did some more work on the floor tonight, made a little progress.  Still have to remove the old carpet glue in areas,  it's A MAJOR PAIN IN THE A$$!  But its looking good so far.  Researching options on covering the black areas with a carbon fiber or something else.  who knows

A little update on my Ultra.  Got all the carpet out and floors cleaned up.  Pulled the gas tanks out, drained old fuel out and cleaned them up.  The straps that hold the tanks in place had come loose from the hull, so their being taken care of now.  Also got all the anodised pieces back from Atlas, puting them back on as I go along with new polished hardware.

Looks good where is Atlas?  I need a few pieces done.

Got some more parts in today.  Second box of AN fittings and hose, also got my headers back from JET-HOT.  Had the guys over there ceramic coat them for me and they turned out great.

Did the coating people say anything about breaking your headers in.  I found out, after the fact, that there is a proper way, just don't remember what the process was. think.gif

Well I've had the engine in the boat now for a few weeks?? and did all the tinkering, plumbing, test'n'tunin in the driveway.  Took it out a few times to find any unseen issues.  A few oil leaks here n there, fixed now.  Waiting on the seamstress to finish modifying the cover so it'll fit again.  Was able to get INSURANCE on it too! Gonna go through the trailer wheel bearings, noticed a seal leaking and slinging grease, make sure it's road trip ready.  I'll get the lil things taken care of and be ready to see you guys at Tawakoni
