+1 yep that what I was thinking.( holders and radio) pics look good!! Did this guy not have any spares??
speedo is kind of useless anyway, once you know your rpm/GPS speed anyway. More for the passengers
Especially those that haven't been in gofast's before. Grins from ear to ear and mine only runs low 60's.. funny chit, until they ask how much gas we burned so they can pitch in!!

I don't think he has a spare, I'll get you two new wagon wheels with tires to keep the pucker factor down.

The HP500s should push a 302 closer to 80. I can run 72 on gps with twin 454 mags in my 302 with the low windscreen. I believe the valvel springs need to be changed at 200 hours on the hp500s not a full rebuild. Some guys do it without pulling motor. Just compressed air and change springs. They were known to be weak and possible break.

cool.. just emailed you....

Had a bad experience towing my trade to chicago last time.
15hr trip.. 3hrs into, greased buddy bearings before we left and was going to grease again at first fuel stop, but lost hub before that and wheel went rolling into median...

Took another 15hrs to get to Shogren.. Doing 60-65mph and stopping to grease all hubs every 75 miles. The 40 degree weather helped! NOT FUN= puckered for 15 hours and especially driving thru downtown chicago with walls on either side and not shoulder

454 Mags, trailer, cover and 195 hours I can't see how a guy could go wrong at $34,000?

302 W/HP500 EFI's, Ext Boxes and Imco 2" shorties will run solid 80MPH on GPS and a few mph more dependent on load, water condition, etc. I would guess carb HP500 be mid-high 70's (75-78 range)

that would be cool.. but there are 3 things about this boat. Other than these 3 things.... boat is immaculate! clean and has power mcleods! cuddy is empty.. no head/ gallley.. just benches.

1. trailer is 8k cap
2. 1 new motor, other is just over 300 hours; so 1 needs valve job now and other will need valve job in 2-300 hours and other will need to be rebuilt in same time frame (new b/c of valve failure)
3. who ever thought of teal/pink needs to be shot. Outside isnt as bad, but the top of the bolsters are pink! lots of pink!!

Looks like the aluminum I beam trailer that was under my 272. Boat does look real clean though and gel is shining nice. Given year of boat.....those where the colors of the day
