Trailer has been readied and looked over, including wheel bearings. Took the VR 1 off the lift, went for a run and then put it on trailer. All set for the 6 hour drive to Saris Racing on Monday. Already looking forward to spring and new motor!

Left the VR 1 at Performance Marine. Met, in person, Johnny and Jason Saris. Great guys. I feel very comfortable, leaving the VR 1 with them.

If its a custom build we do prefer to be involved in the install or at least inspect the customer's install before the first ride.
Generally, because we do have our own ramp, docks and full service marina, its just easier for us to do the install and initial water test. That being said we dyno literally everything we do from stock valve jobs to full custom builds, so we do have a lot of confidence in our engines being drop in ready.

On the dyno runs I think you had before said you dyno in full marine trim and not the "hero" trim a lot of shops do correct?
You know, PM me answers, no reason to take up the OP thread.
