Try putting Kiss Cote on the bottom and drive lowers, I picked up 2-3 mph on my 343 with this

There's a been a few of these 343's w/ upgraded power. Here's a whipple charged 525 Cobalt 343.

I plan to have me one, once the Skater 30 is gone.

That may very well be this boat in that picture

I don't believe so, the boat w/ the whipples is in Ohio, original owner, install performed by Sterling is what I've been told.

That's very impressive, nice work. Are those Merc or Herings. 4 or 5 blades if you don't mind me asking?

pinball 06-25-2013 08:33 PM

tsunami triple digits
 
regular 4 blade mercs. no lab finish probably would be overkill. we do not want to get to crazy with that boat.its not that heavy and top speed in its history was 98 but most of the time it raced with 570 s top speed 86..we will go over 100 then probably stay in the low 90 s,even on a good blast..well at least thats the plan.the cornering on that boat at 70 to 80 is unbeleavable.its the real deal .so glad i got this thing.

The Cobalt is at 98 and runs out of prop, 32s on 1.3.6 gears. 34s are junk (bravo 1s) so to 5 blades we go!

You guys have done an amazing job with this project. It's kind of like the pontoon boat at LOTO, the ultimate sleeper!

Its beginning to look like I may have to talk to Jason about upgrades. I may get outrun by a Cobalt!

NASCAT 07-10-2013 07:09 AM

When can we see a few pics of the sleeper??
