sparky, an h2o, Thanks for the history on my boat I'll stop by your shop the next time im down, I have a set of lab finished 4-blade round ear bravo1 28p and a set off mirages 23p I'm looking for a set of cleavers too try, before I buy them an find out they won't work, anybody out there you know has a set I can try? I think the 4-blades are lifting the stern out the water too much but I'm just guessing, any ideas.

Richard : those are the former inhabitants of your engine compartment. I had dave post them because because I dont have a paid subscription I thought somthing was up when you said valvetrain problems. these should not have had any problems.sparky found me the blowers and intercoolers.tyler did the motors,they had aluminum heads although I see you still have the stainless marine exhaust, those motors were fresh, they were definitly done right. and they were run hard on the dyno. but these dont apear to be the same engines.I wouldnt even have gotten rid of the boat except this guy came up with the right number,I couldent refuse in fact it wasnt really for sale. like spark said she flies great better than any other boat ive been in, the only thing i didnt like about it was there was nothing you could do with the cabin, all fuel tanks and thats it. even though it get obnoxious (at 3;00 am) you gotta love that dry exhaust ,I have other pics I will have to dig up. in various states and paint jobs. it had 335s when I bought it from kip plagens who bought it from sparky I may still have the original vents i made those aluminum one to update it a little RON

TOO JUSTBASSING & rtyvaert, were those blower motors small blocks, the picture wasn't too clear . The motors that I have in there now are merlin heads stainless & inconel valved , carillo rods .L.A crank Billet, solid roller billet , Jesel Pro valvetrain, J&E pistons, Jesel belt drive tall deck bowtie blocks 509 inch with Dominaters 1250c.f.m. They spin up pretty good , after I fixed the valvetrain issue with them I couldn't ask for a better running engine's they dynoed right at 700 hp and over 600ft. of torque.

Richard, What transmisions do you have in that boat now? I know when ron sold it, it still had the old merc/ trs transmissions did you up grade to borg warner 72c's? I know they were on the borderline with the stock power.
