On a side note save the $$ on the 710 upgrade & just buy my boat!!
Can you get insurance on your skater? I tried to buy a 28 daytona with 710's and markel would not quote it. I've had 4 cats over 10 years.

That's impressive ! Heck they might swap those out for you just to have a set of 400hr engines back in their possession so they can tear me apart, inspect, reassemble & then put some more hrs on them.

I did a starter and starter relay before loto. Did a leak down last night. All below 9%. Doing headers right now.

My boat is a single.

Yes $2500/yr AGREED to Value, no restrictions (inland etc). 100% legit full disclosure coverage, including Skater trailer.

Just bought Scorpion Engines for that purpose. Combine their engineering & technology w/ a proven local builder who already has a racing clientele.
Problem previous to this has been that ILMOR didn't have a BB V-8 business model, now they do!
Keep in mind ILMOR Engineering has the technology & resources to compete anywhere they want but their plate is pretty full supplying reliable engines to all the Chevy Indy Car teams in addition to the V-10 & V-8 marine business.

If you list them in the Classifieds or mention to ILMOR it probably won't take long to find them a home. They are good w/ networking people.
