Dyno, it's as loud as my unmuffled thru the transom exhaust. The grafix are WAY old school, actually the original paint which is in great condition, requiring just some minor scratch repair. I'm hoping to repaint in a couple of years. I threw a lot of dough at the boat this winter(engines,F.I., paint wk.,new upholstry,drive maintaince,stereo, speakers,GPS,.......) so a complete repaint is out. I'm thinking of the Factory yellow and black checkerd flag scheme. I'll post a pic of the boat, I've got to get to the boat yard this week.

Thanks Sydwayz, you don't think the boat PD will notice me do you???????????I suppose it would have been easier and cheaper to just hang a banner off the arch saying "HEY PULL ME OVER!!!!!!!!!"

If you put enough $$ into the motors, you won't be getting pulled over!

Go4Broke- It won't be that fast maybe 75-78. I just rebuilt/blueprinted the engines to stock specs. They are 5.7l 320hp Merc racing EFI small blocks. I had to spread the budget around the boat. I'll break them in this season, and maybe next year supercharge them, although the drives are a weak link, Alpha SS. Either that or move up to a 42!! If I can get enough for this one

You can go to B1's. Its an investment, but only require one additional hole to be drilled for the new gimble housing for the B1's. I have heard its not that bad of a job to switch. You can recoupe some $$$$ by selling off you Alpha's. Just an idea.....
