I still don't get the 271 thing, but the demise of it is on Formula in my opinion,

When I was looking, I saw a lot of 312's that were set up with 7.4's and Bennet tabs. Seemed like they were set-up to be a cheap(in terms of Formula) entry level twin engine. I don't think I ever saw 311 or 292 from the 80's or early 90's set-up this way without k-planes. At the time, it was very slim pickings to find one set up with 454 Mags or 502's with K-planes.

No,there are few issues I didn't know about.I removed the ad untill I get it as perfect as I thought it was.Stay tuned,I am going to spend some money on the boat and put it back up at the same price when it is ready.

sorry to hear about the issues.....you represented the condition of my boat perfectly when I bought it, I hope the buyer of this one appreciates your integrity like we do.
