TRL505 gave me a pull down to Young Performance this weekend. Eddie is going to do a heads and cam swap, tune as well as send the blowers off to DMPE for rebuilds.
I had planned on doing a top end refresh originally (on stock heads) and getting rid of factory head gaskets (01 boat) but after talking to Eddie, doing a set of nice aluminum heads with all new hardware was a much better option.
I also wanted to get the flat tappet cams out of them before they dwindled themselves down to toothpicks. Switching to roller.
Same thing with the blowers. I didn't want to take a chance at something in the blower potentially letting loose and pinballing all the way thru my engine.
Eddie and his right hand man, Travis are both 2 legit 2 quit, and know their sh!t. As expected, I was very impressed.
A few pics... rig set up - and the before and after of just one day of having the engines.

All I have to say is...
There were 4 dudes that attended a sausage fest at Young Performance this past Saturday. One dude got a hard on. The rest including myself, Eddie, and Travis didnt...so that leaves TRL505. End of story... It was an awkward ride home...
I like to keep a low profile...but yet a quite cocky/dickhead internet repuation to make myself think I possibly could be a 165lb badass in real life...LOL
The 42 is 167mph fast. I don't use props and honestly don't even know what they are...

Good luck with the boat, good builder
