In Response To: Re: Repower w/ new gas Crusaders (Alan Ormond)

Alan, congrats on your results, are you the one who posts on boatdiesel? I've read some postings there.

Did you replace the original engine mounts? Mine will have to be replaced as the bolts which attach it to the stringer are rusted bad.

From what I've heard/seen, moving the CG back in a B35 is a good thing. Are your batteries under the cockpit? Mine had been moved to over the water tank and an aux fuel tank installed in their place (though it leaked and I had to remove it). I could tell a difference between the ride when both tanks were full and now with only one tank.

One other question, what size shaft did you wind up going with?

Thanks,
John
