Finally got to hear one of these engines come to life this Sunday.It ran great and can't wait to get it wet.I hope to have the second motor fired up during the week and water test this Sunday.Just a few more odds and ends like cables to adjust,shifter needs to be hooked up and relays wired in for the fuel pump.Cant wait.

Wow what an ambitious project to undertake, but you have done a great job and the boat is looking real nice. Did you get a chance to put it in the water yet? If so how did she run?
How long have you been working on this project?

Sorry I didnt see your post earlier,It took me 5 months from start to finish,well I'm still tuning and little odds and ends.I ran the Lake George Poker run last week and it ran great.Knock on wood no issues what so ever.I started out with running a stock 30 pitch bravo one and it seems to be a little to much prop and not enough bow lift.I am ordering props as we speak and I will do a little more testing soon.So far GPS says 3600 RPMs was a good cruise speed at 61MPH.5000 RPMs I was at 81 MPH.I need more RPMs so I am going to try a 28 Bravo one and we will see.
Thanks Nordic95
