29scarab wake up call!!!

If you have been watching the board, you know I'm in Iraq. Time to rally the troops on scarabs. Any and all Scarabs can reply. Let see your Scarabs whethers it be stock or with extras. I'm here wanting to see some pics. I will start with mine. Hood Ornaments are also welcome!!!! I'll list the extras with some pics.

1996 Scarab
New 502MPI with Crane HP Gold roller rockers and zero gap rings.
Whipple supercharger with intercooler.
Stainless Marine Exhaust
Gill Sea Strainer for the CRAP!
Complete IMCO Hydraulic Steering system from helm to outdrive, dual RAM
Stellings 12" Extension box is being installed as we speak. Should add 3 to 5 MPH.
2002 Dash Panels
2002 Livorsi gauges with New bezels
GPS speedo with recall
New interior in 2003
1000 watt remote CD player
2-12'subs with AMP
4-100 watt speakers with AMP
New Bravo outdrive

The engine puts out 625HP with the stock engine and stock exhaust. I beleive its been estimated at around 650 to 665 with added extras.

I am also selling this boat for what is owed on it. Not even adding in the extras done. Were talking about 35,000.00 in extras. I have reciepts stashed somewhere.

Re: 29scarab wake up call!!!

There is nothing to add to this boat. I have tinkered all I can to this boat. Wanting to move up to a 35 CAFE or 38 TOP GUN. Used of course I can't afford a new one!!

Houston Propeller labbed the prop. I'm still tinkering with props. It has a 26 BRAVO on it now. I'm at 5050 RPM. I should be at 53 to 5400 for max performance on this engine. The speeds are right at about 71 with 3 passengers and 3/4 tank of gas. This is WITHOUT the Extension box not added yet. I'm thinking at close to 76 to 79 with minimal fuel and passengers.

Lets see your boats!!!

Thanks,
Shawn

The price is right at about 50 grand. This was after last time I called the finance company about a month ago.


This a steal for a serious peformance boater. I won't have more pics until I get home to take some pics of my baby.

Send me some pics to DROOL over!!!

Thanks!!

Shawn

Re: 29scarab wake up call!!!

Here is mine with the truck. 98 model with Magic Brush graphics. Gauge package, 280 K planes Latham sterring, trim indicators, trim in wheel, throttles. Twin 350 mags with K&N filter and stainless marine headers. Best speed of 69.4. never fast enough, wish I knew someone with some experience with prochargers or whipples on the same boat.

Pirate Re: 29scarab wake up call!!!

Hey!
My first post! I've got a 95' with twin 400's, 600hp & Blackhawks. Consistently runs in the high 90's but has seen triple digits. 5th summer with it and looking to go bigger.
