I see its been converted to Bravos but the motors appear to be mounted forward as in a TRS configuration. Are you using drive shafts?

Cool boat! It's featured in the old coffee table book "Muscle Boats" Instigator on the hull sides. Nice pics in there of when it was brand new.

Love the resto projects! More pics!!!!

Hey, its close to running. Waiting on the drives to return from a rebuild. First Gun had the driveshafts fabricated locally. The Bravos are in the TRS location so they are a little high. Going to try some P5X's first. A couple more things to paint. But he is definately close to seeing if it floats, before more money is sunk into it. I bought the first Gas.

Kurt post a pictire of it from the Instigator days

The new power ran great and sounds really sweet. There are a few issues to deal with but I think First Gun now sees it was worth all of the work.:D

Pretty cool for a 22 year old boat.
