sorry what I was trying to get at was obviously you can fit a swim platform to the back of the rig just like on cigs donzi and all your other go fasts but trim and tilt for outboards poses the issue..?

This looks like a good design but if the engines are mounted this far back it may harm weight distribution..?

Thanks for posting the pics Ray, I am hoping it rides even better now that I lowered the motor back down to reality, I changed the water pump, and had a sticky thermostat, so I changed both out, that may explain the higher temps last weekend. Also just found out about a screen I need to clean that should put my fuel pressure in the ball park, and a slight timing mod(TPS adjustment), so once I get the motor set up right, I'll slap that 300 comp on and go for a hell ride Also looking at some 300 promax heads, and a MadEFI setup, the wife is gonna Kill me, if I dont do it myself first may not run the keys this weekend, weather isnt looking great with chance of T-storms, and windy, i'll let ya know whats up.
