Final R and D run confirmed final production configuration in Key West. 5 sets in work right now!! (Tyson when you read this please confirm delivery to Gino on OSO) Thank You,

Thanks Jim, Can't wait. If they are ready by the boat show I would be thrilled! The boat is at MTI getting all the newest updates. Motors are just getting finished at Sterling. I would love to be able to start the season fresh with everything one shot. I think these are going to make a huge difference!! Thank you

It makes parking fun again and a lot less stressful! :) Looks like we will have them done by Miami. Do you want them sent to MTI or Miami?

He's been running those mills for a couple years now and all the local events that I've been too he's never had a failure that I have witnessed.

In fact, at the NYC Poker Run when he fired them up and I was impressed how quite the engine room was and how mellow the idle was! :coolcowboy:

I heard some coans are going into Don Lightfoots 43 nortech, turbo 1200 chief's.
Appear to be a modified powerglide trans

I sure like dons 43, those turbo motors have really worked out great for him. Hey Shawn, if they have a shootout in clear lake this year is the motion in? topps
