I'll put the outdrive back on tomorrow and she'll be ready to rock... I have to work Wed and Thur. at the FD, so hopefully get her on the water Friday... Keep your fingers crossed for me...

Looks like getting her on the water Friday may just happen. Got the drive back on today and most of the cooling hoses are installed, then the rains came. I still have a couple of minor things to get done like mount the fuel pump and run the lines for that, put the power steering belt back on and finish installing the a new seacock set up. I added a water hose valve to the seacock for flushing the engine after running in the brackish waters around here.

Dude looks awesome!!! Congrats. And bring a half decent camera to record Friday's run! I've got a gimbal bearing to do and a shift interrupt switch and hope to test my baja Sunday!

I need a little help here, I don't know which prop I should run with this new motor. The motor is a new 454/330 gen VI roller motor with a 4" Stainless Marine exhaust and a Bravo 1. I would like to get at least 50 mph out of her. These are the 3 props I have: Laser II 48/25P, Laser II 48/21P and a Quicksilver Mirage 48/23P. I hope this helps you help me...
