Yes I would ditto Crab's build, he did some really cool stuff with his hull and put up pretty good pics and explanations to go along with it.

[Vumad]

I only took posts from the vintage forum. I was just reading through and kept the posts I thought were helpful. I haven't read through any of the other forums. If you guys want anything added, post the link and I'll take a look. The vintage was only 22 pages, general discussion is hundreds of pages. You can Image I wont be reading all of it.

Crabs build was great info btw.

[BlueBreadTruck]

STICKY!!! great idea man

[X2 RAGS]

this may be a dumb question, but is there a way to transfer some of the build threads and other threads over here to add to this collection??

[Vumad]

I don't think there's a need to move the build threads. There's only like 3 pages of builds. You can look though them. Thisw forum will flood shortly and you'd never be able to find the builds.

[Vumad]

No sticky? Still updating this as I find good stuff in new posts.

[madscientist]

[Vumad]

I found out some very good information on who can recondition a jet pump for the 650 (and maybe other pumps). Here's the link... http://x-h2o.com/showthread.php?t=28416. I added it to the driveline section.

I am running one of Scotts pumps right now in my 780. Cannot recommend him enough. I wasted so much money on stupid ebay pumps, then finally stopped wasting my time and got one of his. Super nice guy too!

[Vumad]

I added a few more threads.

Stop posting stuff. You're making me do work and I'm not even getting paid.

Horray for the sticky!!!
