Nice concept. I went full custom and made one similar to the new style. The stainless grab rail is deadly to the feet in my opinion. After getting my foot caught in it jumping into the water a few...
I love this thread. One mans search for his ultimate vessel that he once owned. Good luck with the search and I'll watch with interest. Oh, and If I ever see one down under, I'll let you know.
Hows the oil level? Check your linkages are moving. Mine blew the front seal out and dumped the lot (oil) into the bilge. ZF trannys are pretty good. not much to them.
There should be two cables, one for gear selection and one for throttle. Id say your throttle end may have come off the engine end or hand end or could be cactus. If its drive by wire, the plug in...
That Model tower is probably a "new dimensions" tower. I would love new racks also. I have found some in the US but it is not economical for me to ship from seller. If you find extras at a reasonable...
Thanks Coose :D
You may need to machine it out failing the wire brush method. On another note, can you mention the seal Part no. or sizes when you replace it. I need to do mine and could do with a head start.
Yep. Wedding band. Wife wasn't overly upset as we were doing something we both love........watersking. It did help the situation the fact that she was present when it happened.;)
Could also be the camshaft welsh plug. Its been a while since I pulled a windsor apart, but chevs definately have them. They do tend to rust out and you will lose masses of oil.

22" long oval extrusion is 1" wide 1 7/8" high, has a 1/8" wall thickness and is bent 7 degrees right in the middle.

Hi Rickard
They do have a slight bend in them. maybe 5-10 degrees. Ill get a phot when I return home from work. Its 5 am downunder ATM.

Hi Shaun
Yes, the input shaft into the trans. If it lets go all your oil is pumped straight out into the bilge and all drive is lost.

Hi Shaun
I did a similar swap. Put a 06 Malibu 320LCR in my 04 Launch SSV. I have attached a pic of the mounts. I'm not sure if 08 are the same but 07 definately are.I re-machined everything in...
Yes Mark, Just a plain old bit of wood. No bindings and no fin, but a heap of fun.

Nice and hot downunder at the moment. 95F - 100F

Well done Ned. The best part is.......look how much you've learnt. Looks like you'll be hitting the water this weekend,
Ned,
Just ran an eye over mine and remembered that the ecm sould have a separate earth on it. Mine bolts to the bellhousing close to the main earth lead. Might be worth changing the wire to a new...
Ned
Have you cleaned the corrosion out of the inside of the dizzy cap? I'm kind of leaning toward an earthing fault. I'll have a good look over mine today and see what I find.
Regards Carl
Hey Ned
I've been down a similar road and it turned out to be fuel pressure related. MEFI 5 is very fussy, if you get a +/- 5-8 psi variance of fuel pressure it can frustrate the hell out of you. I...
Another trick I use if you dont have access to a flame is boiling water on the prop. Sometimes its that little bit of expansion that helps break the taper grip.
Try searching Google for "Aluminium Extrusion Catalogue" and sort through the pages. I found this fairly quickly...
Gogger
The bolts within the inspection plate do not need to come off. The trans and V drive have a splined connection. Once you get all the v-drive bolts undone (6 I think) it should jiggle forward...
How is the progress going Gogger?
