What prize do I win ?

Um, a pack of snails - some escargot maybe? ;)

snail has a coup de ville. has a big S put on the side of the car, so when he flys by, people say look at that S car go!! now, take the snails and float test them and get manifolds you can put risers on. that motor is down deep in the bilge. I guess stern power drives are shorter than mercs, or else prop is too deep in water. you sure this is a Martini, and not a Klemm Jem?

the hull states its a b and b hull... not so sure if its a klemm jem... but i have found a solution... found a set of normal manifold(mpi i believe) then im going to have the exhaust coustom bent so i dont have to mess with the holes in the transom... im hoping that gives me at least a 12 inch rise... i did replace the rubber flappers but being there under water they do no go cause guess what they float... dynamic speed marine in chesterfeild/new haven mi is going to help me with this project as they are known for the good custom work they do... sucks im going to pay more for the exhaust than the boat but to get it done right im willing to do what ever i can... next year i want to upgrade the engine and rework some of the fiberglass to bring her back to her glory days...
