Re: Its dead in here again...
 

My boxes are stellings. There is a Stellings Driveshaft that backs the fit with a transom mount bravo setup. It Includes a Female Shaft with U joints and flange that bolts inside the box, a male shaft that bolts to a flywheel adapter and the flywheel. You have to spline everything up when you drop the motors in. No big deal. Ill take some pics of the setup for you tomorrow.

Now as for my progress. I have the engine compartment pretty much done. Im running the last bit of hydraulic hose for the steering. The first engine is done and in the boat. I ordered CMI tailpipes this week to fit with the new Center and X deminsion. The other motor will go in when the tailpipes get here. I need to rewire the trim pumps to work with the new switches and trim control in the throttle. We are getting close and it looks great. Im getting pretty excited about it, its really going to have a shock value when the hatch opens. I have some pictures ill post tomorrow. I cant wait to see how it runs with to cockpit or cabin. I have dreams of 80+ in the old tub.

For some reason, I just like the title of this thread so I'll revive it with an engine photo. Making some forward progress.
My good camera took a chit so I had to use my $50 digital.
The red is much more vibrant than it looks here. I spent entirely too much time smoothing casting flas off the heads and block.
Just a 454, the other one looks the same.

Dan,

Looks good! I'm afraid to call and see how my boat's coming. I'll probably need to b.o.a.t. (bring over another thou). The engines should be done.
