Thanks. It's actually my friends car. I just work on it.

Not sure what cam he's got in it. It's my friends car. All I know is, it's a 383 stroker and he brings it to me whenever he needs work done on it.

It's actually not my car. It's a friend of mines car that I work on for him.

Thanks! It's a friend of mines car i was working on.

Rev!!*

If you used one off a junkyard vehicle, chances are it was bad also. The other problem I had with the truck was spark plug wires. Wait until it gets dark and go out and start it up and see if you can see any of the wires arcing anywhere. Also check the distributer cap and rotor button. They tend to get build up on the terminals inside.

Thanks!

Are you asking if my coolant was low?

Thanks so much!

Thank you so much!

Thanks so much!

:)

Thanks!!

This tank I put in was a 16 gallon tank. I originally ordered the 19 gallon tank because I thought it looked like the one that was in the truck, but it was the wrong one. I guess the 19 gallon tank is for trucks with one tank.

@@bigdodd awesome thanks for the tip

Glad I could help! One thing to watch for that I didn't realize I did until a couple days later. If yours is like mine, there's a plug in one of the pipes coming out of the coolant reservoir. Be careful not to knock it off. I knocked mine off and didn't notice. Then when I drove the car a couple days later coolant started spewing out of the reservoir and my car almost overheated! I knocked it off trying to put the rubber cover back on top the valve cover. I was worried about not breaking the coolant pipes and didn't even notice I had knocked off the plug.

The XF that we have has a huge fuse box on the left side of the engine and a coolant reservoir tank up higher towards the windshield. It’s making taking those rubber/foam pieces out extremely difficult. Any suggestions??

@@DynamiteSportsCards Just looked at some pics of the engine bay you have. I see how that might be a problem. I would probably try to take the coolant reservoir loose (probably 2-3 screws) and move it to the side if the hoses allow. If not, you'll probably have to extract the coolant from the reservoir and then remove it.

you may even have to remove the 2 coolant hoses that go the intercooler on each side so you can slide the rubber covers out more easily.

This was my first build, and I really wasn't sure how I was gonna do it. But after cutting the ski apart, it only made sense to me to use everything that was already there to mount to. Less fabrication. This made it super easy to build, and the fiberglass hull on the ski is way stronger than the boat itself so it was a no brainer. The boat runs out perfect with no trim and doesn't porpoise at all!!

@@bigdodd ooook, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the detailed reply!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Your welcome! Thanks for watching!

Yeah sorry, I'm not much of a talker when I'm working!

@@bigdodd The older I get the less words come out.

I do have one small leak, but only because I decided to remove the water box mount and had to remove a bolt after I had it sealed. I plan on fixing it, but I have to remove the floor to do it.

Thanks 👍
