    Transom plate

    there's a little sticker on the curved section that says Campbell from Texas. I replaced the 3 center sections with tinted plexi-glass. The glass that was in there was flat and did not fit very well. There is a little bit of a curve in these and i can't believe the factory would do that.

    First time out

    I'm shooting for 5500 rpm @ 60+mph. I ran the tempest because it's what I had laying around. Is there a better option? Mirage plus? Have Pressure and temp gauge with two holes plugged. I have to pull the engine off again anyway so I'll raise it up one hole. That should put me at 3 1/2 "...
