I'm probably going to keep the Powerflows. Headers would be much better. I would like to keep exhaust tips where they are for a swim platform or steps.

Thanks for giving me the heads up on the imcos.
What does everyone think about the X dimension?

My thoughts on an X is it can never be too high. You can always add a spacer or an extra blade on the prop

I got the Bilge gel coated and now I am doing the final mock up of all the fittings. I installed the transom drive and Kplanes. I will do the IMCO steering tomorrow. It’s all looking good now. After I get everything mocked up I’m going to disassemble and perfect the gel on the transom. I have to be in the right mood to drill all those holes.

Do they still do wakening of the Horses on lake cumberland?....was there in 2009 with my 35 Cigarette...great time!

I'm not sure they still have it. Iti is/was a great event. I'll have to check on it.

More progress. I finally learned how to get a good result spraying gelcoat. The transom looks great.
i got the engine dropped in and it aligned good.
Now on to the rest of the rigging. Fun part.

Looks great Hope the cam doesn’t have a lot of overlap ! Risers look kind of short
