Default Thanks Cathouse Performance Marine & OSO

I just got my 27' Galaxy back from Cathouse Performance Marine in Prattville, Alabama....Cathouse came highly reccommended from OSO and they came through on this build!!

The boat is a 92/93 27' Galaxy Lazer

Before - Stock 330HP 454 w/ Volvo Duo Prop

Now - Cathouse Built 468ci w/177 blower, KE Headers and Bravo 1

The boat ran an honest 50-52mph prior to the trip to Cathouse and today she ran a 67.5 and we are still working on prop'ing the boat... She ran 67.5 with a 26P Bravo 1 Prop @ 4900 rpm, we have lots more rpm's that can be picked up..This was a MAJOR project for Cathouse Performance Marine and the boat was there for over 4 months. The boat is a total sleeper and I'm very happy with the results of this project.....I'm hoping in the end after trying more props and dialing the motor in a little more she will be in the low 70's....

Thanks Cathouse & OSO!!!

Will talk later to help you get some more speed. When you get to 69.3 let me know.

Magicfloat is right, he was who reccomended them and I'm glad I followed his reccomendation. Steve Northington and crew are some great folks and the work is top notch...they went above and beyond for me!....with prices anyone can afford!

Way To Go Cathouse!

That is good to know that there is someone in Prattville that understands. My folks have a place down there in Lake Jordan. I am still trying to get my father to put a blower on his 16.
