Sure doesn't resemble the MR 575SCI - the blower looks oversized to me. If you could buy it in it's original configuration then you'd really have something. Otherwise it's collection of some good parts to start to build a custom engine from which may be ok, provided you go into it with your eyes and your wallet fully open.

Revelocity:
Appreciate your kind words of "recognized", but here at Raylar we kind''a feel that over 400 Raylar kits and about 100 or so Raylar engines in performance boats around the world since 2002 kind of rates more than a "recognized". I know we have a lot of happy customers and respected Peers in the industry who think so ! sorry, I get my feelings hurt easily ! NA !

Best Regards,
Ray @ Raylar

OK, I got my head screwed back on straight, I found a pair of blue mercury 500 efi's with 130 hours for $22,000.00. And if I just have to later whipple them.

It seemed to work best to set my tads and only use my drives to trim at high speed, but trying most to keep it level at all times . Keeping level was important ,cause we got lots of air time .Sure miss that boat sometime !!!
Hey Ray, Good to see you hitting the boards. That boat set the mark for alot of people. and i'm sure it still does. Me and the wife can honestly say we miss that boat too.we have the thomas point lite house pic on the wall and she always says it looked different at 100 mph plus LOL.Gotta give you and Bob P some props every run we were on we finished first even if we had to fill up at every stop LOL.And who ever is looking for a engine builder you need to talk to this guy.those motors hold up. We will have to catch up with you this summer. Curt
