Well guys, here we go. I'm finally getting started on the rework of my Bahner. Kind of breaks my heart to tear into this thing, but I know when I'm done it'll be even better than before. Plans call for a set back pump, better internals like an Aq. shaft, stainless impeller and inducer, controllable tunnel plates, blu printed bottom, and a blown alky 496. I'll be losing the interior for some carbon buckets, and as this project unfolds, I'm sure there will be variances from this, but for now, that's the direction I'm headed.
Here's some pics. I'll post them as the progress continues.
My place. This is where I'll do most of the work

This is after getting most of the stuff out of the way, getting ready to pull the pump.
