Re: My 52 GMC Build

I cant believe they came that fast. I ordered the same gauges at the end of November and they just came in last week!

Ya I bought the OBD reader to get the info, I need another BIM for my added pressure sensor so it SHOULD all work. I'm not trying to add a bunch of different stuff, it just has to talk to the motor computer. Guess we will see. Ya not cheap.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

Took my Seadoo to the lake in style Friday, back bumper was under water, good thing I have a low trailer.
Then went to a local cruise night and saw this big beast, I could not find the owner to get more details, but I have seen it around town for years.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

Well I finally started on the 7.3L powerstroke buildup. Took me about 2hrs to get the old stuff off I'm not using, and clean out the 2lb of dirt from the valley. Transmission is going out to get a rebuild/beef up to handle power. Cylinder heads are going to the engine shop to get new valve seals and my upgraded valve springs.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

Well my son and I went on our annual boys camping trip, since it was just the 2 of us this year we decided to bring the Seadoo as well. It is legal to double tow in Ontario as long as you have a pickup/commercial vehicle and everything is capable and fully hooked up. So away we went, didn't even know it was way back there. I do have a backup camera on the trailer so I was able to keep an eye on it. 2.5hr drive later in weather that feels like over 100* we unhooked the Seadoo and backed in the trailer to our spot. Came home yesterday had a great trip.
