Now, about that creek in Zepherhills you posted a pic of earlier... any thing there worth a day trip? Is it on public land and are you willing to share the location? No secret captbob. I get better results heat treating that material. It is on Handcart Road NW of Zephyr. You gotta get wet, it's in the creek. A bit of a climb down. Last time i cleaned it out was last year. The best is the first 30 feet down stream from the road. Last time I was there was a no trespassing sign was posted so I stayed on the road ROW. This is what it looks like after cooking. Fairly bland uncooked, changes a lot. www.flickr.com/photos/67205364@N06/sets/72157633217576214 |

It is the most powerful non turbo/supercharged per cubic inch in the world using gas. Standard engine in older Sea Doo's, they got bumped by the EPA due to pollutive reasons. That one tweaked, 108 octane and probably triple ported |

Holy cow. Those are a tough act to follow. If you are looking for more coral after the first box I may see if you are open to a fluorite trade.
