As Brian said the boat was built with Teague 720s with Teague Platinum drives. Eddie did rebuild them in 2009 with the only real change in setup was the addition of Dart Pro 1 heads. We pulled them out to do the top ends a few weeks ago and just made to decision to go all the way again. They are out and apart right now and will be back together in a few weeks. I am also changing a transom assy and that makes both of them in the last two yrs. We put a complete new cockpit in the boat in 2012. That was all vinyl, floors in cockpit and cabin, carpet, complete dash with all new gauges, even the stereo. The boat needs nothing after she gets put back together.
I guess this is a full on hijack of Pat's thread.

I thought I remembered a four and a two mentioned at Boyne.

But then your Vette wouldn't match, either.

That blue does look sweet. I'd keep what you have until she holds out to the point where your manhood starts matching the color of the 2012 boat.
