Ateco motor/boat shop in IL
 

Well just got boat back, they rebuilt motor,installed lots off go fast parts on her. They all so pulled motor and installed in my 27 Daytona. Man guys I have never worked with a performance shop that is so so on there game not missing one thing!!!!! No rock goes unturned, Jeff there is by FAR the best tech I have ever dealt with and I have been in the speed game for 20+ years with lots of go fast toys. Jeff is a guy u can tell just loves the game, and the way he treated my boat and motor blew me away!!!!! So so carefull with every thing he does!! Hell he is more carefull with my boat than me and trust me that is saying aton. Have not put in water yet but I am sure it will be perfect!!! (It was on dyno and on the hose) To keep this post super real if anything the build took longer than I wanted, but I did add a lot of things along the way and I know it is 1000% right and when all done that is the only way to do it right!!!!!!:coolcowboy:

Thank u Skydog. P.S. Motor is a 600 merlin Blowers.

I don't know this shop from a hole in the wall, but there are a ton of differing posts about this place.

Glad to hear of people having a great experience with someone in the marine business! Keep us posted on how the boat runs, we look forward to seeing vids :cool:

:lolhit::lolhit:

When are you going to take the boat out for the maiden voyage? What are some of the specs on the engine?

:popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:

As soon as the weather is ok, and the threw hull pick up, boat life glue sets up. We had to move pick up there for good water. The guy i bought the boat from had a pick up off the very back of boat. It was not getting soild water there.

Skydog:evilb:

bring it to the River Shiver run on Oct 2 and we'll see what ya got :party-smiley-004:

Going to I think! What boat u running I will look for u if we go.
Matt :evilb:

hope your glue's dry by then :eek: will be in Mike Ts AO and you wont have to look to hard we'll be ahead of you and you can have a good look at the rooster tail & tailpipes :lolhit:
Bring it !:eek:

Skydog, we thank you for your post and your support. You have been a great customer. You listened to our ideas and followed our directions, which resulted in a top notch engine build. Watching the dyno pulls on You Tube and seeing her reach 1100 hp was awesome for us, too. It's nice for us to be able to work with a true boater, also. Keep us posted.

I sure will buddy, it has been fun just cant get over Jeffs work!! WOW :coolcowboy::coolcowboy: Might be going out tomorrow for a nice little shake down run!!

Thank you again keep in touch! Skydog

Sounds good, bring it? Well yes if i go i will bring my boat.:kiss:

Skydog

1100hp dang, fountain 42 u sure you will be out frt of skydog

Sounds like it in a buddy's friends uncles brother's boat.:coolcowboy: I know he is out front with his mouth and his little typing fingers :lolhit:

Now back to my post Vids and pics coming soon!!! :) :)

Are you sure you're not Peckerhead388's Dad? :lolhit:

skydog - bring that bad girl to the River Shiver. But don't be alarmed
if a cleverly camouflaged 40ft. Skater shadows you all day with a
video camera waiting for your new engine to explode. :evilb: :evilb:

Now thats funny... :lolhit:

Mrfixxall vid very soon. :) :) Looks like a great day!!! And I got my biz/shop/kids all covered!!!! To the water I go!!!!

Skydog

Congrats, Matt!!! Seriously, though, bring it to the River Shiver and show that weapon off. Later, Dave

Yes sure going to try!!! Now I am during this smart phone off and hooking up boat!!! Hahahaha

Thank u Matt

I think the AO is going to have a tough time staying ahead of a 27 Daytona with 1100 hp. I am guessing real close to 140 mph. I saw Skydogs boat and it is over the top. Even the stereo will rock the docks. Hope to see you at the River Shiver.
