sent you email through RCU with the link last night

Here is the link for you....[link=http://s218.photobucket.com/albums/cc35/macleod220973/?action=view&current=Jacobsmono.flv]Jacobs Mono[/link]
You must have edited it just before i posted lol,Jacob she goes pretty well mate nice one.My guess is 32-35 mph which is about what mine did with the pipe,never noticed a great increase on mine with the pipe apart from the increased noise.Be interesting to see some gps numbers with and without the tuned pipe to see what increase you got with it?.

Just been trying to square everything up. The rudders are square to the transom, but the strut seems to be twisted to the right. I think the casting is a bit off where the strut bolts on to the main frame.

The Boys in the West having funnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Hey Bucky, it was a pretty good day (although it didn't quite go the way I wanted, it sure beat slaving about the house). The 6518/3 #420 looks like it will be a goer once I tweak a few other bits on the boat. It was the first time I've been out since Yarra...............I really needed a break after that, I was wrecked........................actually I think I am still suffering the after effects.

I will give you a call in the next few days, just let me know when you are free mate
