Mods

Mods I got stinking mods
Rebuild port engine bad fuel pressure regulator detonated two cly.
While it was apart took heads off starboard engine, to check and found one head cc'd 76.5 and the other was 73 soooo ordered a new head to match and had all 4 done with a proper valve job and a little bowl work (just to be safe)
New oil coolers(easy to get to now)
New bilge pumps(see above)
I think I'll throw two sets of fuel injectors at it, to ward off any other fuel related problems
New cockpit upholstery
Repair any chips in hull
Nice wax job
New stereo
AHHHHHHHHHH
Empty wallett

Sending carbs to Nickerson for rebuilds

New gelcoat, or paint. I will try to gel myself, I have a small compressor, if that fails my brother-in-law has a bodyshop and I will shoot it in imron.

Maybe some new graffix but I like the white-out look

New cock pit cover

upholstery work
