...ok Vern, I guess I'll just take the blower motors out, drop in a pair of 330's, blow the Marine Patrol and just roll over for THE MAN!
I'm pretty sour, fast boats were the last frontier, THE MAN has made everything fun ILLEGAL!

I didn't say rollover, I just said make it legal. Wicked Won posted once that all the truly fast boats nowadays are quiet. He's running 1100 blown bad boys, I'm sure you can bring yours into compliance.

I've got Gaffrig muffler tips. If they are closed, I'm reading just a bit over 90db at idle (4x4 test) and last year, one of the wardens said that was acceptable.
The problem is Gaffrig does not advise running their muffler tips in the closed position over 3000 rpm. Could cause exhaust valve problems.
Does anyone have any FIRST HAND experience with the GBB product with a stout blower motor?
Sure seems like the days of real performance boats will be over before you know it.

I was running open stelling headers on my boat and the dick head cops over here started to give my some real hard looks. I call Gram At GGB he sent me a set inserts for them. They work pretty good with maybe 1-2 mph slower. The dick heads over here stil look but not as hard now.
