    Default Piston in the wind build

    Here's a few pick's 1 step forward and 2 well u know the rest. Got to make a 3/4 inch spacer under the huffer to make the belt work. There's not another one that will work too short. Stripped out ft cover bolt have to pull the gear cover off to fix. Old rope guard cant even weld on it to make it work.Other than that its goin forward.

    Damn son, that thing looks awsome. Makes me wish I had been born rich, instead of so damn good lookin. Can't wait to see it on the water. With any luck, mine will have a test run next weekend.
