Rick,
As you know the engine was built by Atlantic Motorsports in Mew Milford CT. It Made 620 on the dyno and and about 585 detuned and ready for the boat. I have had no problems she always fires and always runs real strong. Steve really builds a great piece he has built a few other engines for my personel friends and we all can't say enough good things about his work.

There was a guy on/near the lake, late eighties used to build engines for a lot of the lake boats. I met him thru "The country Butcher" who had a deli and used to race mud trucks- is he still around?? His basement was a full on garage, usually had 3-4 boats in there getting bigger blowers etc.
