Only thing done to upper end is the valve springs as far as I can determine. High hours are my major concern. Have to continue looking at other options before I pull the trigger. I have to say it looks bigger on the outside than it is in the cabin. Trailer is very heavy duty but I couldn't determine the manufacturer nor could the broker tell me who made it. No sticker other than FOUNTAIN on it.

For comparison I sold my Fever - minus engines but everything else ready to rock including XR's, Imco -2 shorties on extension boxes, sea strainers with updated paint and interior on a Pacific trailer for around $40K back in 2011. You may as well count on a complete rebuild very soon with that many hours on those engines, not to mention the headers if they have anywhere near that many hours. . Again, I think for what it is it's way overpriced for meh looking boat.
