I'll be updating the distributer, alternator, and maybe power steering pump in the future, but the total current cost to get it on the water this summer will be $12-14K for BOTH dyno'd and tuned engines and around another $1,500 or so into the engine bay. Most of the engine bay money went to fiberglass repairs and awlgrip. I also sold around $1,500 worth in used parts. When finished I will post my parts list. I think I have around 50-70 hours in it, Txhawk probobly has around 15-20. Still a lot of work left.

You are going to have to work on your math. I think we had 8 hours in it the first night! Its fun relaxing work.

Someone needs to clean that floor.

LOL. Your right about the hours. I think you had 15 into the two "other" engines before we had to disasemble them and have the builder build us two new ones to start all over with:eek:.
