Re: Need Viper advice
whoa there, don't jack the motor up just yet, you need to make sure that thing has cooling water to the motor. you can only run the propshaft even with the pad if you have a low water pickup. Do you have a lwp?

Re: Foam core installation
I have found that most guys on this particular forum tend to go balsa after doing some reading about the core materials. It seems the balsa can be a very good core material when laid up carefully. I am also interested in the foam core, but I found it more affordable to do the balsa. As far as vacuum...

Re: new member with a 78 viper
Will probably cover up the top holes. that will simplify using a hose at home when running the motor. Wondering about water pump kits and thermostats? where is a good place to buy? anything else I should know? Is there an easy way to rig up new controls to it?
