The 35 Nordic Flame is sitting in my shop almost complete with a new engine package the old pauff moter just never got tuned quite right & burnt the deck. It has been replaced with a procharger & fast fuel injection I will test this set up as soon as the weather breaks I have been around a few of these boxes on pulling tractors but normaly two moters in to one drive shaft aprox. 4500 Hp with out trouble this should be no trick with only 1500-2000 the engine builders will tell you that it isn't the best thing but remember they want to sell two engines not one! I will keep you posted on speeds & problems but will not quit until I have at least run faster than posted in powerboat! Hope to run desert storm shootout may not get speed record there with the elevation

Hope to run desert storm shootout may not get speed record there with the elevation, but should be 100% by shootout Lake of the Ozarks.

By the way, just so everyone knows each other......
Scott (littledscrodshop) you met Brant in Chattanooga at the races!! That was the first race for him in my boat as the navigator. Oh, and the Nordic is in KANSAS!!!
Brant, Scott was the guy that was taking measurements of the drives and motors on the race boat as we were packing up on Sunday after the races. I know I introduced you two. He has a 28 Saber that he is building a monster motor for....
Later, Brad
