It just takes cash- or in my case, credit.
Got my oil pan today- bolted it up and looked through the oil drain bolt hole, and sure as sh!t the oil pickup bottoms on the pan, so now I have to order miloden pickups and a new oil pump(the old oil pickup is welded on) Its always something. So will I be able to sell this thing for 50K when I am done?
(That was a joke by the way)
Question- I already have two optimas, is that going to be enough power to run everything or do I need another one?

Are you doing any type of a sound system? How big are your alternators?

Got all the wiring done in the bilge- except for the fuel sending unit. I am pretty sure I need a new one- are they just a common universal thing, or is there a special one I need to get? Also got the right oil pump pickup, got the oil pan on, and pretty much buttoned up the starboard engine. Hopefully be dropping it in this weekend. I will post more pics when I get a chance.
