Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

Is anyone running the Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor engines in their boat or have any experience with this combination. Interested in overall performance, reliability, idling quality and customer service.

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor

Don't be so tight, belly up for the Merc 1075's. You know you want them:evilb: :evilb:

"Apache Carl" (St. Joseph, Michigan) has a pair of Teague's quad rotor fuel injected engines in his 41' Apache and seems to be satisfied so far. He's had them for a couple of seasons now. You will usually find Apach Carl in the Apache section.

he's gotta good point, the mercs ARE a niece piece of equipment.

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

Don't know about the 1080 model, but I have Teagues and their product and service has been very good. Would not hesitate to do more business with them. Eric

At 85k a piece my my _sshole was starting to pucker up just a little bit. Really did not want to put that kind of money into my boat. I called Outerlimits to see what kind of deal they could get on the 850s and 1075s and do the installation but they never called me back. They only have an interest in a person that wants to spend 900k on a new boat.

After all the problems with GT Performance I am ready for a reliable package that I can actually use this year. For anyone else looking for power buyer beware of GT Performance.

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

Looks like you have Big Chief heads on these motors. I have had 2 sets of quads with Big Chief heads and GT Performance never could get them tuned right. Looking for new power with fuel injection.

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

they are indeed big chief's. the fuel system is a help in idle quality. as well as the ignition syhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7t6MFqD-OTostem. heres a small clip

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

These valves are a pretty cool idea (no pun intended).

Nice cure for the screw compressor problem.
I am curious to what the under charger temp would be
with them closed as compared to them open.

Dosn't everyone run chiefs?:evilb:

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

Call Eddie Young and Young Performance Marine. (615) 216-7449. He has built several sets of EFI quadrotors including the engines in Cyclone and Nashville Catz. We actually dynoed the motors for Catz at Gt and went on right after a 1080 was pulled off. We made alot more HP but Eddie's motor is a 1200/1400 hp motor with a pulley change. It is a transmission busting beast on 1400.

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

No thanks I would not want anything to do with anybody that is associated with Gary Teague in any way shape or form!!!!!!!!!!!!! If he needs Gary Teagues tuner and dyno forget it.

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

Enough 4 Play -

Go with the Teagues, Bob that is. You won't go wrong. Just had a long discussion with him on saturday about this setup/motor and even as an engine builder I'd be damn tempted to just get his 1080s. The quadrotor is a bada$$ setup but needs to done 100% correct or you're in trouble. These are a stable of his lineup, not a "one-off" like so many other builders. Just my .02 PM me you contact info if you're in the midwest for install.

Oh ya, skip the 1075s!!!! No "wow" factor if you ask me....

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

First of all, Eddie is not associated with Gary Teague good or bad. We PAID for the dyno time just like any one else walking off the street. No one at Gary's did any tuning on these engines. He was actually recommended by Dustin to us. We have not dynoed any more engines there but it was not because of Gary or any negative experience. We dyno locally now. I hate that you had a bad experience, however Eddie Young has built some AWESOME engines for me and a lot of other customers that I know as well. Check it out for yourself.

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

I have also had good luck with Eddie when he was with TMP and now. Always had great service and his engines have always run very very well. I could really care less where engines are dyno'd, I would rather have exceptional service and a great running rig for a few 100 hours!

As usual, just my .02

Heya Mark

Hope all is well. Actually I have Teagues 900 EFI's. Single 3.3 SC and 540ci. I love the Engines. 900+ HP without the Merc sticker shock. They make the old resin bucket go fast.....

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I have happy customers because I bust my a$$ for them. I will do whatever needs to be done because I truly love what I do.
Enough 4 Play, I also build a 1075. It has much better parts than the Merc, will run longer between rebuilds and costs a considerable amount less. It also comes with a 6 month warranty. Give me a call if you are interested or if I can help you in any way.

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor
 

Ohhhhhhh.....well dang Carl,,,, all WAS recovering well! Heck, I didn't know you only had the singles!!! Now you gonna make me relive the pain I suffered from you last fall and thought that arss whoopin' you gave me and my little puddle jumper was because of some BIG BAD QUADS you had under your hatch! (???) Guess ol' Booky and I shoulda left you and your Dad well alone back in the day---what, 20+ years ago?

Freakin' embarrassment!!! Think I'll just go lay in the dirt and eat worms! :(

Re: Teague Custom Marine 1080 Quad Rotor

Another great source for a very well built EFI 900 - 1200 HP engine package is Taylor Performance Inc.

Gary Taylor has been featured in Powerboat and his 28 Howard Bullet is one of the fastest singe vees at 113 MPH.

Here's a thread on my engine with more info on TPI.
