Sorry to hear about your water problems. Our 38/700 has never had any water pressure issues, have owned it 3 years. Their are also 2 other 42/700 boats that were bought last spring in our area that dont have them either. Glad you got it worked out.

Cool....sounds like a more reliable upgrade than just adding boost....are you going to Dyno?

Everything is forged, they have blower pistons and rings gapped for boost.

Made 1000hp on those blocks for years with zero issues. Now if you had a big roots on there and tried to make 1000hp, thats different. Zero issues with the block.
