Default Cigarette adventure (new transoM and #6 conversion)

Figured I`d start a new thread.

Still waiting on drives, 5 months now, lost count on the "they`ll be done next week"
All they needed a couple of bearings and reconditioned propshafts.
so I continue to install stuff on sundays cause pretty much every weekend here is **** (but beautiful during the week when I have to work)

Not sure how it took me 6hrs to install the lights but here we are.
I rather enjoy the rigging part of this project.
at 15,000 lumens combined these lights are BRIGHT!!!

Man your engines are a work of art and the blower belt is just another example of the detail in this thing.

Dan let me understand this . it took you 6 hours to install the 2 underwater lights in the photo . I am assuming you used a late 1800"s Amish hand drill to bore the holes and pitch to water seal on installation . Next time reach out I will be happy to help out . I am not sure when electricity was invented but I have an electric hand drill I would happy to lend you for future projects . it might speed the completion time up by 50% or more .

How to make a big block Chevy look dimensionally small: stack a huge intake, massive cooler, and big ass blower on top. Seriously, the block looks so small.....
