Look at how far up on the transom those bravo gimbals are mounted. That baby should fly.........

To the OP of this thread. I would be interested in some of the original parts on that beauty if you decide to part with any of them. More specifically interior stuff.

I have a 79/80 SS with twin big blocks, yes very fast, but there isn't room to do anything in the engine bay, and she sits heavy at the dock.

Will i be able to keep my stock hatch on with the higher x dim and still get the exhaust above the rub rail? My drives are about 1" below the bump out on the back of my hull? All the boats i have seen are ss's and have the raised hatch? Was not sure if it is a must?

I have 144ci blowers on mine that's why the flame arresters poke thru

Mine with big blocks and stock 425HP/454 intake manifolds with the exhaust above the rub rail, the air cleaners stick thru the hatch as does the exhaust risers.
