It looked like the "fiberglass" was gold-colored, but I will take some pictures tomorrow and post them and hopefully some expert will comment them.
And now another problem, do anyone know how long the k-plane indicator cables are for a Top Gun -87? I tried to look at the ends of them, but i couldnt see the mark that indicated on their length?
In wich end of the cable are they marked?

i just ask because ive seen "575" that were nowhere near 575's but ok. get rid of the flame arestor and show me how you know its a 575... because it has big drives? because of the headers....

The boat came to St.Tropez new, and was there to 06. 350hours since new I thougt was a utophia when I saw the ad, but after I saw it IRL i belive it.
We will rebuild the cylinderheads this year and for the season 08 we will look at the bottoms of the motors.
If the motors are OK, do you folks think that 70-73mph is possible?

Our own boat is from 1981 with 390hrs and has closed cooling engines.
And then thereīs a 1987 Scarab 38KV MV edition that has only 128hrs quite close to both of us. In fact itīs seldom any boat has 1000hrs on the hull, come to think of it I have prolly never seen(=not paid attention to) one either
Are you running the TG already and what did the engines turn out to be, to me they look like 420īs?
Tomorrow Iīll check a Kevlar Scarab that is already in the drink.

They look just like the merc 575's in the merc catalog from back then.
