I actually like the red/blue one, but its over 1200 miles away and carbs??

I towed back from Chicago the first time but that was a very long 900+ miles. Also, need to check to see if it has the 3 man rear bolster like the green one! I do not want that...

I may look into the red one to see about the rear seat and hours on engines.

No worrys about hours it take care of. they will run a LONG time with normal use.

I think the red one is sold, I talked to the guy, someone had left a deposit and was coming with the rest the next week. He said he would call me if it didn't sell. He never called... The green one well...

I will feel better after a compression test to make sure all cylinder are still good.

What are good 454's compression ranges??

they can keep the green one.. would have really considered if that back seat wasnt bolstered.. its a big boat!

My old 2000 29 Outlaw w 454 mags has well Over 1000 hours on it and Still running like a top.
I bought new w 5 hrs. Its on its 3rd owner now.
Never been opened up. Just change the oil every 30 hrs and other routine maint.
Great motors.
Couplers every 300hrs or so. Gimbles about 500.
If they havent done away with the "Cool fuel" system, I thinks it was called, you may have vapor lock issues. I had the fix installed after 3 yrs of WTF.

Where in OK is it?

Just north of you in nowata,ok

I did fix too with pump, also heard you could reroute return fuel back to tank?? Found thread from young performance about that!

My 454's are pushing the 1300 area.

Nailit, I to have an 302 boss with stock mags carburated, that has 520 hours on the motors and it will run 67-70mph(I dont do it very often it hurts the wallet) with me and the wife running 23 pitch , three blade props. No oil burn issues and runs super strong if taken care of. And mine is just like the one in the video the black checker pattern with the red stripe (1997 Baja Boss).To see it go to the members video section page 2 "Go pro Baja first try at it" .
