89 272 sr1 hull
 
I ended up buying back my old 272, I will be selling the hull without power, drives. But will sell with drives or without gimbles pretty much anyway you could want it I can work out.

It has the newport #1 colors and is in excellent condition. The deck paint is a little faded but the hull is in very good shape, as is the cockpit and cabin. Has 280 kplanes, clean bravo gimbles, bilge all redone.

I do not want to part out the boat completely yet. I'd rather leave the hull as complete as possible. Pm or email me for pics

:) come on John I'll set you up a good deal!

so what is the deal with it being a big block boat if the engines are not in it? Won't small blocks just drop right into this thing or did they do the stringers differently for BBC hulls?

I hate it when deals like this come up and I am this far and $$$ deep into mine.

I don't know the if there are any differences in the big block vs small block boats but small blocks will drop right in and bolt right up.

Same everything!!...and I know the 800 horsepower I have will move it...with the weight savings it might even run close to what it did with the 500's.

How did it run with those motors in it?

Theyre not 500s, they are 454's with 781 oval port heads, weiand intakes and hp500 carbs and flame arresters. I don't think anyone swapped the cams to take advantage of the better heads.

Just talked to a buddy of mine that did a small block to big block swap in a 272, no difference in the boat, just drill 2 more holes for the bravo transom assembly and bolt the motors in.
