This is headed north.
It is a project but pretty much what I was looking for.
I am ready!

Any other 46 owners who can assist me with some measurements and questions please help.

I have to admit the size is overwhelming but as the day progressed it actually seem to get smaller.




Thanks in Advance
Gerry

Peter at Skater called me today and will give some of the measurements needed to go back to pistons.

1000hp with # 6,s need ratio 1.35 figure 32 props
Drive shaft lenth from 24-30 inches.

Anyone can measure theres?
Need drive shaft lenth from transmission flange to
#6 flange.
also Crankshaft center line to bottom of hull
or any measure that will give me engine height.
a photo would be worth 1000 words.
