I hear you there! It has been very hard to keep from getting irritated over the build. This thing has turned into such a "might as well" project it's not funny. If I am doing this I might as well do that and that is the thing that is killing me. It has turned into so much more than I ever really wanted. I call this project my Mona Lisa. Since it going to be a one of kind and a billion dollars! Lol

Boating season is coming for sure. Took the pontoon out with the family mothers day. But no Checkmate ride yet. Hopefully soon!!!

What a great thread on one of my favorite boats. Thanks for taking the time to document and share with us, definitely a monster part of why I like this site! Keep rocking man.

Thanks for the compliments. It's been a long road but I am getting towards the end of it.The more I get deeper into this build and the more sophisticated it becomes I sure do have a greater respect for guys that do this for a living.

Hey guys I've made some progress tonight. Pretty much all I have to finish is up is basically the wiring. I am building all the harnesses to my specs for my application. It takes a lot longer than one would think. I am so over it! Here are some in between pics. Don't worry it may look like a mess now but it will all be neat and tidy before I go to the dyno.

Finally got a few extra minutes to check out the thread. Looking good I like the coil on plug. I think between the two of us we should have the stupid wiring crap down pat LOL.
