I think the speed limit on I-75 in MI is 70MPH so once you get out of Flint I think it would be smooth sailing but it would be 55mph 2-lane state HWY once you get over the bridge all the way to 3-Lakes.

The Mackinac Bridge is very cool!

Kinda a side note but I'm working on installing these gauges and I have to ask. Seeing that the dash is approx 1.5" thick, the mounting brackets for the gauges don't even reach the studs. Have others with 'Streams encountered similar problems and what's the fix? I'm thinking of cutting the brackets shorter so they do reach the studs? Any input or ideas is greatly appreciated.:confused:

I always wanted to try to animate a sequence of still shots into a .gif file and I finally had a chance due to the photo opps at Kosh. Check it out this is 31 pics taken in burst mode on the still camera and then put in sequence in .gif file which I believe can be used like a regular picture and even used as an avitar photo.

Just got back from a 20 mile run with Baja. No pics so..:( The lake was glass as far as the eye could see.

But Damn i love these motors,

Mark- she is a great runner hasent missed a beat, spun my 29 srx @6600 with my bro in the boat and we could have gone for miles....

By the way how long (distance) have you guys run these flow motors up top???:eek::eek::rolleyes::)

FlowMaxx
06-15-2009, 09:34 PM
we have wash down buttons (primer) right on the wheel. When coming down off a long blast (1/2 mile) we ride the primer to cool the piston domes. Holding it WFO for too long is a recipe for meltdown.

1/2 mile and long shouldnt be in the same sentence:reddevil:

turning a 29 srx 6600 with that motor is impressive, thats harder then my tired junk looper would turn it (6400) good job:cheers: time for a GPS:)

nothing sounds like those flow's either, when you hear one comin down the lake you know exactly what it is even over the mercs:cool:

Oh yea!!! not very often the Lake lays down that good... That would be sick nasty if the PowerTour made a stop here when Lake looked like that. You can run WOT for MILES!

When I used to race the 600+ hp jets, they would get a big jump ahead of me on takeoff. They told me before we were half way through the quarter they would hear that "damn pitter pat noise" the streams bottom made just before I passed them. :thumbsup::cheers:

I emailed Jim today. There is fuel on the water. Sunset will have 91 and there is a place on Island lake that has 89. I think we will carry an extra tank in the boat in case it gets ugly

FlowMaxx
06-19-2009, 09:25 PM
that is a good idea. Jim said it will take 2 hours!!! I cant imagine we won't need gas at some point. Only wide open on 3 of the lakes though. there is a map of the parade on the 3l shootout website.

PS we might be in your neck of the woods on sunday

It pretty much looks like the path of the last Nickfest tour. I ran that in my old Vector on one 6 gallon tank if I remember correctly. Of course I had a stock 175 Black Max then!!!!!

Hey Guys, seeins how I'm having trouble scoring a stream, I was thinking about coming out from this ****hole state to meet you all at your 09 Htdrostream Power Tour and hopefully find myself a nice boat. I am thinking either of driving out and hauling something home, or flying out and renting a car and take a look at what's around for sale...and have some fun too! Any tips on where to stay, what airport to fly into? Ed

06-20-2009, 07:24 AM
Thanks Voyager, I did see that one, and I called on a bunch of others. Seems that about 85% of all streams are in your area. How far is this one from you?

06-20-2009, 07:41 AM
Actually, Voyager's Voyager was one I was interested in. 18-20 foot good dry tight hydrostream, w/ or w/o power, pref Merc. There is one in St. Cloud MI. that Shawn told me about. Emailed him. Anyone of you stream experts live close enough to St. Cloud to check it out and give a second opinion?

Wow, what a day. 12 hours of pounding on the boat. All gauges minus the tach...(but ordered Teleflex OMC tach harness today), are done. Steering is done, trim is wired and mounted on wheel, throttle cable mounted to hot foot, hot foot installed, and just finished laying the carpet. Some finish trimming to be done tomorrow as well as mounting the seats. IT will be at 3Lakes for SURE!! :thumbsup:

At 4800 to 5000 RPM = 65 MPH. The Gas would go faster then the water coming out the pump. :D

By the way...I briefly talked to Chad about it, but do I have an official ruling on what is going to happen now that I'm not using the VRO pump for oil? Is it going to trigger the low oil buzzer and if so how do we address this issue. I'm not rocking the weekend listening to that stupid buzzer!!!!!!
