The motors went down on a transport truck both ways, used a freight broker that i know and double r did the customs for me. Double R got the motors on Tuesday and end of day on Wed. the boat was running in the test ank, all checked ok and ready to run. Saturday I put the boat in the ramp, started the port no problem, started the strbd and one of the braided hose lines coming from the heat exchanger popped off, going to have a regulare black hose put on and ready for next weekend.
Forgot to take pics of the bilge but will post them when i take them.

Ron Potter of www.potterperformance.com did them, he is in Sarasota. If you go to his web page you can see his different models, although he used my block and heads the rest was based on his 650hp model.

He is a great guy and I can't say enough, he has called me 3 times since the motors came back to check in, weather has not been on my side, so i have yet to run them.
