I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.

When he was 15 he wanted me to rent him an apartment in Harlem so he could train with Hannible . Looking back , I was the only one who saw it as a bad idea .
Brandon still uses many of the resistance and isometric techniques he learned watching the video's during the classes he teaches today ...
Not many people have the core strength to do sideways push-up hanging from a pole ..

I built this car to easily swap between big inch nitrous and roots blower motors .
It is legal to 5.0 flat and 250 mph . Bead Lock wheels , twin chutes and full floater rear hubs .
The guy didn't want any of my nitrous stuff , so that stuff including the headers stayed with me ...

Charlie, off subject, I am talking to a guy about helping him w/an OMC project for a tunnel boat class trying to bring in all motor breeds.
Cross breed any mid, any gear case under any powerhead.
Which basically means adapting your non Merc p.head to a Merc mid/gear case or roll your own.
Since all the OMC race stuff is owned by collectors, I always thought the answer at least for the mid is a fabbed up sheet aluminum mid w/upper and lower mounting flanges to allow a bolt pattern for whatever you run.
In my mind, about 6 pcs of sheet and a good welder and you'd have a good looking mid.

Yes , absolutely .
The " setback spine " above was built like that . Todd wanted to be able to use the three ram trim and a true 15" can for the bass boat guys . I built 5 or 6 for him and 1 went to Key largo .
We often talked about doing a Monocoque can , but never really took it any farther than napkin drawings ..
Top flange , bottom flange , some mounting bosses , some star wars-y looking corrugation on your outside panels and the same for some "baffles" inside and you would have a light weight bad azz can for not a lot of money ...
