He`s usually pretty expensive as in sometimes double, I stopped in to get an estimate in case his prices have dropped but haven`t heard back.

Have you ever dealt w/ Powersource Racing Engines? I saw a boat

at Grandsportcenter recently w/ some of their engines and was really impressed with the rigging detail. They are local which is nice.

Dan, just a thought . With all that additional weight hanging off the back end you may want to check the tongue weight of the trailer before you do any highway towing. Would not want that work of art to get squirrelly on you at speed. Cheers RG

Post #35. I'll bet that while you were dragging those behind your work truck, people were wondering what kind of furnace those were!
