Don, I luv watching builds, please show pics of the engines coming in crates, and the opening and craning onto the transom. Videos would be great as well.

This is gonna be one awesome build!


Will you be using lab finished props or stock props from Merc?

Hi Noli-

First off the engines are not brand new, so this build will be a little different than what you are expecting. A good friend of mine is Shaun Torrente and he and I are looking to do some different things with these engines, I cant tell you yet, but it should be fun. And for a base line I will be running a set of 4 blade merc cleavers, but after the first run I will be switching to something other than merc props.

Thanks
Don

Hope to see a set of Diesels on it.

Me too. Currentely the diesel combination does not offer the RPM range/gearing needed to generate the correct prop speed for a high speed cat. It has worked out great for a CC.

15" Mids!!! Cool boat

STR engines are awesome!

STR should give you better low end/mid torque and with the remapped ECU, should give you a higher RPM range.

Cool. Please post pics of the rigging!

say no more about the props

How do I know all of this? I dunno

You should design a gear box that would fit between the mid and lower. The mid section could be shortened to make space
