Default RE: crankcase sealing on gas/glow conversions

BradH, I am no boat expert but it seems to me you are going to turn your boat into a snow plow with that gizmo on the bow. Has anyone else used that?
I put the spoiler on to prevent flipping at high speed. It did plow though...good call [:@] And the boat at 20lbs, did not need it. At least not yet I had 1/2" standoffs if needed, but did not use them since I could not flip it.

I know this is not the boat forum, but I said I would post a vid once I got the motor running, so here it is. I did not get it tuned real well and the 20x8 prop might not be giving me the best performance for airboat use, but I was pleased for its maiden voyage. Thanks to all the guys who have perfected the gas/glow setup and who helped me get this thing going.
