Scott I was just wondering do the chrome letters pick you up 2 or 3 Mph

Lol

Thanks! That was the launch with the two freshened 500's after one was bitten by the Crane valve spring bug. Kinda odd pic, but rather cool. Really cool deal was I had asked my engine guy if I was going to have to F' with the timing when I went to fire them the first time ........ his answer was "check them after the run for a while, but they are real close". He was only off 1 degree, and he set them on his shop floor, guy knows his chit, gotta' love that.

Same deal, slightly different perspective.

I heard it's closer to 6-8 Gerald.

timing is reallly easy to set. roll the balancer to the amount you want your base at then set your dist straight up and u r there glad u had a good experience.

I do understand the way it's done, just thought near spot on was pretty good.

I polished a '99 47 and noticed that it had a very high quality painted Fountain-logos. I love the quality of these boats. They are made to last. I have the chome lettering on my 2004 29 Fever. They look nice, but didn't like salt acid. They got a lot better when polishing them, but no where like new. They are chromed plastic.... Personally, I think it don't look right tp put on new lettering on a earlier boat. It don't look original anymore. My opinion though...
