TURBINES IN A BOAT!

Hello to all my Skater brothers!

After all the hard work I put myself through.
I realize that most of you must think that I should seek counceling.

Well I am! 12 ounces at a time

Heres the plan.

Remove two good running PSI Blown chevys.
INSTALL TWO MARINIZED LYCOMBING T53,s L13B,s TURBINES in a 46 SKATER.
PROJECTED TOP SPEED 180MPH+



I took one final picture of the piston engine installation.

The removal takes place today!

Lets have some fun!

Whaz up???

The next poker run I gotta bring more beer Atleast two coolers
after the run Pete Nopper pretty much cleaned me out.

Say hi to Paul for me!
Why dont you guys stop by also I have the video here.
Not the best video however there is some decent footage of
outrageous.

Here is a picture of the Caliper controller.
This is activated by a micro switch in the shift which sends voltage to the coil and the onboard air system will apply air to the cylinder which mechanicaly pushes the master cylinder which squeezes the caliper stoping the N2 on the turbine enabling a shift in and out of forward neutral reverse.

Hello Gerry
Thanks for the invitation! Too bad I wasn't close by today, I could operate the backhoe.

Knot-Right, the name couldn't fit any better!!!! Great thread, I liked the first build, I think the next build thread will be even better. Good luck on the conversion, if I was closer I'd help ya with the beer, and the project.

In the end, you will be far better off doing this than you could imagine.

It just takes one major concern off your mind when boating.
