Man that video was awsome, When I get back to the shop I'll see if they have my Hyd. steering rams off for you. Lets not go that fast without them, I know it's hard.

Your motor reminds me of the movie Tommy Boy when he puts the coat on and rips the back out as he say's " Big - man - in - a - little - coat."

But in your case "Big block in a little Mouse"

Boat looks great , nice clean job on the rigging .Smart to do the steering and tab up grade . Bob and I were talking about it , and we are expecting some where in the triple digit range for top end . Make sure you do the steering before you try WOT. Be safe and have fun .

I heard that!

Years ago there was a 22 rigged up here with a small block and a Banks turbo kit that ran around 100. I would consider the hyd steering to be the number one priority, for both safety and better handling. Speed is a great thing, but not if you can't use it safely.

Yes fella's, steering is at the top of my list! I will be looking around for some this winter. Not a bunch of stuff available for the Alpha drive though. Sure limits your options!

Steering would be the next upgrade I'd do for sure. If you are keeping the Alpha, start with this:

Then you can add a hydraulic helm later.
