Extension box on the 29! Sweeeet!

Finally after 7 long months I got my boat back. They a lot of work on it. Extension box. New inconel and stainless valve in the heads. Now the fun begins. Its in the position of being raised 1 ". I'll do some tuning and see if I need to raise it some more. If you guys have any input it would be appreciated. Going to start breaking in the Engine tomorrow. Here's a few pics.

Still have some major cleaning to do. AND it is going for sale for what I owe on it so I can buy the Top Gun I want. Even with all the upgrades and modifications. I will even show the buyer the payment booklet.

Re: Extension box on the 29! Sweeeet!

Dblvanos Last time I checked the payment booklet, it was right at 46g's. I did not take any short cuts on building it right. Zero gap rings, Crane HP gold roller rockers. Stainless marine exhaust. Fixing to go to the paint job to have all the lil' dingy's and scratches fixed. I'm offering a deal that would be hard to pass up for the right person. Thanks for the interest.

94Scarab29 Thanks,,,its been a labor of luv and fun....and lots of coin.

Re: Extension box on the 29! Sweeeet!

so is the extension box adjustable as far as drive height. Would love to see some exploded views and how do you deal with alignment when you raise/lower it

Re: Extension box on the 29! Sweeeet!

The stellings box uses a driveshaft. As long as the flange on your crankshaft and the flange in the ext box are at the same angle the dual U joints on the shaft make the shift. A high X dimension makes harder angles on the driveshaft. Let us know how it runs.
