Talking Finally done and splashed!!!

One year, seven months done!! Started as a labour of love then it became tedious, then a labour of love once more. This ride is a rocket. It will take a few hrs to get the feel. I have Bravo 30's on now, too small. Also coming up on plane tabs all the way down drives in, takes some throttle feathering because of blow out. Once on plane, bring the tabs level and you gain 10mph instantly. I bring the drives out a little and gain 10 more. At 3000rpm I'm going 50 on the speedo. I will post some numbers when I have the engines broke in and have my GPS to be accurate.
