Cat is all done
 

Sorry it took me so long to post the finished pics guys. Iv been working like a crazy person we are extremly busy. But the boat is done Iv been out on it about 6 or 7 times and it runs great not a single problem. Knock on wood. The boat picked up 2 mph which is fine considering I didnt change anything to the motors just rebuilt them and I added weight with the #3s. Check it out let me know what you think. Thanks, Jeff

A couple more pics

Looks great, you should post up some in progress pictures if you have them.

Also what drives did the boat have originally and what all did you do to swap to 3's?

I origanally had #2 lowers with TRS uppers. But I switched to threes in the winter.

What did it take/ what all did you have to change to switch to #3's?

Switching to threes is a pain in the ass but its worth it they are very strong. You have to change the transom assembles which do not bolt right on you have to redrill the holes and fill the old ones. The steering has to be relocated slightly. Move the motor mounts about two inches back and a half inch up. If you do this conversion you have to use a dumby block to mock it up and get the alighnment correct. You also have to change the tail shafts on the transmissions for the #3 transom assem. If you are going to do this conversion I have all the parts to do it. Transom assem, tail shafts and drives that I would be willing to sell at a good price. Thanks. Jeff

I wont be doing it any time soon, just trying to figure out my options for when I finally have the coin to upgrade! SSM II's are hard to come by and are only getting harder!
