Yes, I may win but your build is going to be bad ass...

What did you decide to do with the broken boss on the block?

Just going to run it...this was the fix.

yeah, I wouldn't worry about it. When you first talked about it I didn't realize your motor plates were connected to the water bolts also.
Oh, and all that polishing you're doing, most miserable job on the planet. I hate doing that shit. Looking good though.

The first time I met Greg he was sitting in the back of his truck with a smug little smile. I was walking by and he says; "Hey, you gonna run that trailer queen?" I responded with my usual; "of course not". lol
About 20 minutes later he was out on the water doing what he loved most. I didn't know him well, but I knew several of his friends and everybody seemed to love him.

Yep, I am getting my butt kicked right now. I think this will be the last time I do it myself. I paid to have my Southwind parts polished and I found out the hard way that it's worth every penny to have it professionally done. I cleaned the parts with steel wool, sanded with 220, 500 & 1,000 grit sandpaper, then I used a grinder and drill polisher with medium and fine polish. I am trying to get mirror polish out of it.

I dropped the boat of with Scott Schatz at S&S Performance and Marine. Here's a couple pictures of his shop and some of his projects.
