Later, I have a 35 with 525's and ext boxes. We love the boat. The hour meter shows 112 hrs when I bought it , we put 80 hrs on it this summer. The port motor had a pop out the carb at wot. I knew something was not right so started looking, found the 1st owner had pullies that put the boost to 10 psi with no coolers. And the timing was 45 degs at 4500. I put the pullies back to stock and timing to 35. Still at wot once in a while the motor would pop. I finished the season, did a leak down test and found the heads and rings were shot. Took both motors out went all the way through both, New rods, mains, valves, valve springs, rings, gaskets, rebuilt the carbs and serviced the blowers. The motors are back in the boat, I have to hook up the drive shafts and put the blowers back on. I wanted to finish it today but we got snow. I would like to run them well before spring so if I have messed up I can fix them this winter instead of during boating season.
