Wow so do your Due Diligence to check everything out before buying a "running" boat.
Next full rebuilds, new interior, I assume drives and Transmissions checked,,,,,,,was this priced as a deal? Deep pockets. Eddie Young engine by spring. New interior locally I have receipts for drives and transmissions, previous owner changed gear ratio not too long ago. I try and find the best deals on everything . Waves and wheels along with another place in loto wanted $20k for interior.. It`s getting done for $6k for example. |
She`s a tall ***** and a pain to fill up so I put a fuel pump on the port tank that will pump the gas from port to starboard tank , now I wont have to move boat at the gas station. #winning:p

What the engines are going to look like ...............I don`t know what I`m going to do with all this blue. Called all around Nashville to see if anyone could strip and annodize bblack some of the parts with no luck..
I need everything black . https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...02ed62858b.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...4196ebd435.jpg |

Yup, the fresh engines.. whomever said buy a boat without power, that`s probably good advice.

Will that pump move the fuel as fast as the fuel pump is putting it in?
Average gas station pump is 8-10 gallons/minute The pump moves 3gl/minute at 50psi pressure . There`s no data on flow at 0 psi. My testing it was about 5-6 gallons/minute so about half as fast. |

Just curious how these Eddie Young motors compare to the motors in your old cig?
Eddie has a recipe he`s been doing for a long time , one that works but the tune and the way he tunes the engines on the dyno is key imop. He puts em under much a lot more stress than anyone could in a boat . then tunes every few hundred rpm under a ton of load. If they don`t knock on the dyno they never will in the boat . Not crazy about mefi-4 but the dual knock sensor protection is way better than even what Holley can currently do which is a plus . Parts wise : Merlin IV block Billet caps Lunati crank Howard billet rods Belt drive Shaft rockers 55mm cam .904 lifters Brodix BB3 X CNC 380 heads Custom sheet metal oil pan 4liter Whipple Moac intercooler Distribuless ignition LS coils Crank trigger |
Can the Whipple's be ordered black?
|
This build is 50/50 new/used parts .
I picked up a rebuild someone bailed on midway. These are not brand new builds, I wouldn`t be able to swing that lol The blower and all the pulleys are blue . Eddie gave me a price that was hard to refuse . Love that guy .:bananalove: |
So he’s not using your blocks?
