that thing would sink if you put a big block in it with all the needed equipment and if its not a big block,that kind of hp and torque would twist it inhalf!

Default My friend is Al Nalli

he is the manager for Rickey Medlocke and is part of the Skynard mngt team. he owns rights to Blackffoot, Brownsville station and a great friend. We do not talk business to much just skiffs. the boat was built at Eliminator out of Canadian molds from what I am told.

big blocks do not have the torque that this machine does. they have put big blocks in skiffs before. They are not snappy enough and I have heard of the big blocks not being able to pump out the water from the exhaust pipes. so it has been done before.

the engine in that boat does not have a blower or nitrous. It just has a carb and a whole bunch of refining.

No skiff is like this one. it is a m---------- of a ride.
