My wife likes the games that you have to look at 2 pictures and spot the differceses....
The crank does drop straight in when you set that contraption up right, it is a pain in the ass, I remember those days.Quote:

How did they do that?
By using very bad sentence structure to say they used regular carbs.
pumper carbs like OMC super strangler or every carby 2s jet skiQuote:

OMC used them on the later V-4 racers. Several alky racers used them. I know they are one of several carbs on the record setting Harrison Anzani and Michelini tried them on several motors. Gordon Jennings is of the opinion that they are second only to fuel injection

Thanks for the picture of the Scott Atwater. That is very cool. I have not seen that one. That is a highly stylized piece including the engine stand.
I wonder how that Popeyes boat aged out and where it is now. All his stuff was just so trick. The linked multi engine 2.4 Merc inboard cat was something to see. I looked that over a long time.
I have a VHS tape with speed runs from the eighties on Lake Ponchartrain LA with the big guns back then. One of his boats was in it. There is also 30 Velocity in it Screaming way up on the pad.
Doesn't really seem like it was that long ago but is is.
Taken from Fugimos stealth craft........;) Didn't know you were up there.... no panic.....
