so now ,interior done..I wanted to stay in the time era it was built...1975 so I went with the racing stripe look, and kept the stock seats..I was happy with the work.

now, out at mead water test on the trailer...then to dunsmore for a leak down test....

[2FORCEFULL]

so I took it out and ran it....the whole time I'm thinking it was running too lean and too small of at prop,.. and also not very fast... found out the issue... the shifter was adjusted to not go to high gear, probley set up for pudding stone??? and it was getting on the chip and shutting down...

[2FORCEFULL]

Next, off to dunsmore...leak down was horrible....30- to 70%..
so we ran the valves,.. all too tight..did an oil change and added some marvel mistery oil.....the next leak down was single digits

listen to the video...history repetes it self...lol..and look at the numbers wrote on the vlave covers

My first Schiada. 18' with a BBC and a Drake pump. Full 4 stringer boat that was incredibly solid. I think I paid $1,200 for it and sold it for $2,000.
