I looked in my stash and didn't see it but I will take another look today. I do apologize for not getting back to you sooner.

I looked again for the lifeline but couldn't find it. I have a couple of the grab handles and original fuel fill if anyone wants them.

Nice project - I personally think that we should keep these boats as original as possible with the exception of engine/drive upgrade. I dont want mine looking like a LipShip edition - not saying that they are bad but they are in a class by themselves.

In a 1974 20' Cig that I am having restored, what is the Maximum hp I can put in the boat? I am thinking about an all aluminum small block 450cu. in 550hp. Will I be happy with this? I love speed!

I have a 700hp engine in mine, and the fastest one has over 800hp..... you've got room!

I guess the best way to go is with a all aluminum big block. I am concerned with the extra weight of a big block. The aluminum 550 hp small block should make this boat go 85-90? I am using 280S K-planes

85 or 90 is got to be pretty dangerous in a 20' boat.
