looks good! How hard was converting it to the 500 efi's?
|
Thanks guys! I'm actually on Lake Tenkiller but I'll be going to GLOC and LOTO quite a bit. It really hasn't been that difficult switching over to the efi's since the previous owner had fuel injected power in it. The exhaust has been a little time comsuming since I'm building the dry tailpipes myself.

Looks good. Maybe see you at GLOC this summer.

That will be a really nice setup Mike. I was originally going to go with more power but came across this power and drive combo at a great price and within 50 miles of my house so I jumped on it. I tore both engines down and rebuilt them so they are ready to go with no worries. The next set though will be a bit more power.

Congrats on the project. That boat used to have some big blown injected 900hp Larry Peto engines in it, with SSM III drives. I believe it also has built in A/C??? Whoever added the boxes and #5's headed in the right direction with that.
Boat should run low 70's with 500's, you'll never hurt the drives. |

BTW, the old ssm drives are cool :bunnydance:

Mild your correct, it did have big blown injected engines in it. The guy I got the boat from bought it just for all the power and drives. Yes it does have factory A/C, which will be much appreciated during the Oklahoma summer! Yea, the 500's shouldn't give the #5's much headache but the next pair in a yr or so should keep them well excercised, well hopefully anyways...
