Thanks stab-n-steer,im on this tread alot just reading everybodies posts.Was just wondering how many of you lived by me. Im new to boating and v-drives,and will need alot of help in setting mine up. I like pontiacs(i know a little odd)but i think you stick to what you grow up with. I like 57 pontiacs and am curently working on a 57 pro-mod style 2-door sedan that should run in the 7s,this was my first car that i bought when i was 14 years old. It has been years into this project but am almost done. High horsepower Pontiacs are expensive to build so i elected to go with a blown rodek. But my boat has about a 650 h.p. pontiac that i am almost done building. I striped the boat to get ready for paint and wanted it to get ready for this summer,but unfortuneately i almost lost my arm in my lathe so i have been off of work for awhile. So when i get back on my feet i will need help in putting it back together and operating properly.
