Sold it too cheap I guess. It went fast. Scarab market has gone up. Guess becoming hard to find.

Did you change out the oil bypass spring or block it off? I think that is really the only thing need.
Great looking boat

Expensive day. Deposit on a brand new Manning steel painted trailer and these arrived at motor builders machine shop. Brodix CNC combustion chamber with bowl and pocket porting from brodix and shaft mount rockers. 405cfm 700lift. This boat will eventually run mid 90's..think instead of 598's we are gonna build some 604's [ATTACH=CONFIG]554156[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]554157[/ATTACH]

More power. These boats are heavy wave crushers. 502 mpis should not have been an option. 500s should've been standard.
