Hi all, thank you for all the compliments. I had a head come a part so I am headed in a new route with a new set of heads, cam, rockers, valves, springs etc. I will post some pics as the build progresses.

Well, it's been a while since I last had an update. I have not worked on the boat in a long time. After a valve broke I basically removed the motor and took off the valve cover to see what happened. Since then we relocated to a different state and bought a new house. However, I am happy to say I will be headed back to Michigan at the beginning of May to bring the boat and engines to their new home so I get started on the engine builds. I will post some pics of the progress. Not certain which direction I will take this build, I have been thinking about twin turbo's in place of the super chargers but we have to see where my creativity takes me!
