Had a great weekend with the grandkiddos. Started with Friday night pool time. Decided to give the McRaft up a try on Saturday and they did great floating all day and never complained. (Didn’t get any pics). Finished the night of with more pool time. Decided it was too hot to do another lake day Sunday so we stayed indoors most of the day. My son come to visit us and brought our youngest grandchild over for pool time. Finished the weekend off by taking the family to dinner for my sons birthday. So yes. I had a great weekend.

Just finished up this part of my project today. Compressor back from PSI for a refresh And finished up the carbs, top plate, linkage and fuel lines. Finally making some progress. Trans finished up last week. Get the oil pan welded up this week and other miscellaneous parts prepped and ready.


That PSI is an absolute beast. What heads are you running? Love this build. It deserves its own thread.

Thanks. Heads are early dart big chief/pontiac pro stock shit. 557ci 10.2 deck. Sonny Bryant crank, carillo rods, titanium intake/inconnel exhaust, ross pistons, TD shaft rockers. 8.5 static comp. It's basically a sterling 1550 clone that came out of a 50 foot skater years ago that got converted to turbines. I've had it and another 598 (lick er box 36 skater that preceeded the lick this 46) for a long time . Complete refresh on the long block with some updates and re-engineering everything else for v drive usage and my own spin. With all the 100LL BS these days I will probably now tune it on the dyno for pump 91. I'm refitting the engine that I've run in my 21 RC for quite a few years w/ a procharger/n2o deal for my nova. Trans is fresh and ready too.

All prepped and ready to go, heading back to Colorado for a 1000 miles of offroad. Today I installed Nitromousse in the wheels and cleaned her all up. Can't wait.

Looking forward to you posting pics. Love these Colorado trips you do. The Alaskan trip was amazing too. Appreciate you sharing. Bike looks good.

Hiked the Narrows” in Zion. Last 10 days have been bombs, havasu to powell, to Zion to vegas and back to havasu. Gonna be rough going back to OC for work tomorrow.

Looks awesome! When we went I couldn’t figure out why everyone had those hiking sticks. Walked in that water for a bit and it immediately made sense.
