Happy 4th everyone. Luna Pier festival for me and the family today

 

Hope everyone had a safe 4th.

One more day of construction for me today, maybe some pool time will work itself in also

 

I have the same amount of fingers that I started with, so I'll chalk that up as a good fourth.

 

Off to Birmingham for the week! Hopefully work on the truck a bit this weekend. May back the truck into the barn and try and tackle to tone ring since this will likely be my last free weekend till the end of August.

 

We had a good weekend. Didn't do anything down town. We did meet with our draftsman and it appears we were right to switch. This guy is much better.

 

hope everyone had a good weekend. went camping in Indiana at one of the state parks, My god how do they fit that many people in these campgrounds. it is like a natural disaster site.

 

i was in this mess Saturday.. it didn't suck!!

 

That looks like fun. The bird watching must have been ok.

What event did you say that was again?

 

just an informal gathering on Torch Lake, happens every july 4th weekend.

 

Urea concentration levels in the water not safe for children too. I used to attend 20 years ago.

 

not exactly an environment for children anyways now, haha.

still can't pinpoint where oil is coming out of the boat engine when running it over ~4k rpm. i have both valve cover vents running into a baffled catch can, and the oil dipstick zip-tied down. still coming from the starboard side somewhere and misting the engine compartment. have a buddy's leakdown tester in hand, so i need to see how bad my blowby really is, but i would like to know just where it's getting out of the engine.

 

Gutted the slide on the trailer and found a LOT of water damage. Figured as much, but not sure where it's getting in yet.

I had a neighbor stop by yesterday with a 27' Gulfstream on a Ford chassis with the 460. He can't get it to start and said both fuel pumps tested bad and he can't find either pump. Any of you guys got any leads on where to get the pumps? Gulfstream says to call Ford and Ford can't fond anything on either pump. WTH?

 

Had the same issues on an old truck
look at this information
Carter 172GPH Pump, it still exists! - 460 Ford Forum

summit racing carries what you need just call them and give them the engine serial number

 

That looks like a mechanical pump. This guy has an in tank pump and an inline pump on the frame rail under the drivers seat that's electrical.

 

got you what year is the truck? I would still think that summit would be able to help.
