 Building a long tail...
Has anybody used those eBay plans, are they worth it?

 Re: Building a long tail...
I built one using Mad Mud Motor plans from E-bay. I used a 8 HP motor and it turned out nice. The plans tell you everything you need to know and has lots of photos. You can't go wrong.

 Re: Building a long tail...
Anyone else have problems with the grease seals that they recommend from mcmaster? Mine kept leaking, not sure if I had too much grease in shaft?

 Re: Building a long tail...
Well, I finally finished the longtail but I can't seem to keep the prop In The water.
Did I set the angle of the shaft wrong?

No woodie, you have the wires on your flux capacitor backwards. Switch them around.

 Re: Building a long tail...
I know this is off topic, but I'm looking at an 1854 GTR boat and motor. What kind of speeds can I expect from this?

 Re: Building a long tail...
Also, what does a stage one for a 2 stroke 280cc Honda consist of? What gains can I expect?
I would like to know the valve lash and cam specs for it if anyone knows that too.

 Re: Building a long tail...
You only need blinker if you plan to operate it between 1 and 2 A.M. In reverse at speeds above 20 mph. Your prop is fine, the reason it's called an 8x5 is it starts at 8" but is good until 5"
I am new to mud motors, where is the portal to enter blinking fluid? I assume it's the one on the top of the valve box?
