[Marko]

FUKIN AAA! Way cool Marc! :thumbsup

 

[SFV2RVR]

Here are some pics from yesterday after I picked it up.

 

[DragDad]

Im getting ready to build a flatty trailer... I LOVE this! Im going to steal some ideas... :skull

 

[SFV2RVR]

Some more....

 

[wrighton]

NICE. now thats a custom trailer. great job

 

[rivergames]

My boat would look great on the trailer :champagne:

 

[Boat211]

Very nice. Great job.

 

[Phebus]

I can't believe you towed that trailer. RD would have flat bedded it.

 

[SKIA36]

Now thats what I call a custom trailer!:bowdown:

 

[LV R SCHIADA'S]

and for the final detail...........wheres the polished stainless license plate frame !!!!

 

[Marko]

Over the top Marc, your boats gonna look SIC on that! :thumbsup

 

[bravo1]

What's with the bubble gum welds?

 

[SFV2RVR]

and for the final detail...........wheres the polished stainless license plate frame !!!!

Scott, That is my spare plate. My other is still on my old trailer with the frame!

 

[Backlash]

Marc, congratulations on the beautiful trailer! I have been following this build from the beginning and it turned out really nice. I love the wheel/tire comb too; they look sharp!

Bravo1, welcome to RDP. Forgive me while I "Hi-jack" this thread to respond to your comment.

I know plenty of people who fabricate for a living and have built profitable businesses due to their abilities to create works of art from a simple piece of 4130. Seeing the final products that these talented individuals create makes my welds look less than attractive. I will admit that I am not a "World Class" fabricator but I can lay down some pretty nice beads and luckily for me, I haven't had anything come apart yet (Maybe that just means I need more motor?!?).

Maybe you are one of these fortunate and talented fabricators who can lay down a row of dimes without any effort and if that's the case, then congratulations.

Regardless, I am not trying to be a jerk or stir the pot but I just felt the need to respond because I found it a little bit rude that the only comment you made was in regards to the finish of the welds on this trailer.

Again, Marc, it's a beautiful trailer and I hope you continue to post additional photos once you have the boat loaded.

Stay safe!

Thanks for the kind words. I was holding my breath on the bravo1 response. Not worth my time!

 

[Marko]

Probably a jet boater!

 

[420HOA]

WOW!
where does the spare go ?
were you going to mount it under the bow ?
I like it in the truck bed with the jack.

You don't need a spare Glenn! If you get a flat you just remove one of the center wheels and keep on Rollin!

The trailer looks real nice Marc one of the nicest I have seen, congratulations it was worth the wait. :bowdown:

Gee Mark, Why isn't it Stainless Steel? Why isn't it depleted uranium? Couldn't you have had more flat screen TV screens involved? What about if it ever gets wet? Have you thought about the well thought out catwalk carpet? What i mean to say is Marc- WE WOULD HAVE DONE IT DIFFERENT IF WE HAD THE TIME AND MEANS AND MONEY
AND PATIENTS AND LOVE AND RESPECT FOR YOUR BOAT AND, AND, AND...

Looks rad...can't wait to back it in for you...

 

[KBS Engineering]

And as a "Dime Laying" Welder, I appreciate and condone the lack of grinding to the welds. The trailer looks great for one. It was not TIG welded. It was MIG welded. Grinding the welds "flat" will shorten the life of the trailer. Yes, it's a can of worms, challenge me- I am not short on welding knowledge. I would be glad to give a class on the trailers that last, and the ones that don't. (the ones that don't include my own, BTW)

Back on track....Marc...can we finish the boat yet?

[Bense]

[CampbellCarl]

Looks really good Marc!

Now about that idea that somebody put out there about a nice piece of polished diamond plate for a prop guard mounted on the underside of the rails running rearward from the third brakelite........

Kenny, we pretty much got the motor back together. Got to bolt on a couple small things, then off to carson's to dyno!

 

[LV R SCHIADA'S]

ahh, Mr. Brummett's dyno, it tells no lies !!!!:thumbsup:thumbsup

 

[Racey]

ahh, Mr. Brummett's dyno, it tells no lies !!!!:thumbsup:thumbsup

No lie there, multitudes of competitors '1200hp' motors don't make as much hp as Carson's 1000hp engines :skull

Any guesses what my 468 with 13lbs of boost will make? Im thinking around 900ish on race gas.

 

[AZBrummett21]

Trailer looks Bitchen..

 

[River Lynchmob]

Any guesses what my 468 with 13lbs of boost will make? Im thinking around 900ish on race gas.

I think thats right in the ballpark...850 to 900 is solid

Without knowing anything about your heads and camshaft, I would think it would be somewhere in there.

 

[LV R SCHIADA'S]

775ish HP......My Guess, knowing no other info on yer motor.

 

[Marko]

What difference does it make? It just stays tied up to Foxes all the time!

Heads are dart pro 1's and the cam was bought from carson. Not to sure on the specs though.

Hey... someone has to tie their schiada up there. None of you other pussy's ever do!

 

[Racey]

I'd say your guess is fairly close Marc. :thumbsup

 

[River Lynchmob]
