That might be Cyclone's old boat. I remember a thread on PB, or maybe even HotBoat, where someone posted pics and were talking about a similar boat. Hit up Cyclone on the Perfomance Boat forums.

Nice boat. That SUCKS about the motor. Good Luck

By the way, Welcome to SCJB

I was there when the olds exploded and we towed him back. It was getting dark on the way back from the sandbar and crime was hauling azz trying to get back and oldsmopile didnt like 5200 rpm. Its ok cause a 396 resides in there now. And yes that boat is bad azz. Matt

my folks were the original owners. it was handed down to me and I restored it. I sold it, it changed hands once or twice and then sat in a dirt backyard in norco for a year with no cover on it. I saw it when it was for sale again and it was thrashed. Trailer was wrecked, cap was cracked from running into a dock. interior was dirty as hell. all the cool motor parts i put on the olds when i built it were missing. I was so bummed to see how bad that boat was treated. It was very nice when i sold it.

the boat was originally two shades of blue metalflake when it was laid up by Roger. It was repainted white with about 6 shades of blue in the mid 80s. In 2000 i had TRG Custom Fiberglass fix all the imperfections and re-gel coat it white and orange.

I enjoy it. We have had it in the family since new. Now its my turn and Iam just getting to really know the boat. I would really like to go out on some trips with people that have the same kind of boats.

4 Rogers that is cool. I work at Deer Springs Fire Department just around the corner for Valley Center. This is my first boat and I am just getting to really understand how she runs. I rebuilt the motor last summer and Iam working out the Kinks. With 4 Rogers I bet you could answer some questions. I am looking for a set of OT pipes for a BBC I have Nicson Logs. The ones now have seen better days and I dont have any baffles so I keep getting hassled by the cops for noise.

My brother in law use to volunteer at the Deer Springs Station back in the early 80's. They live across the 15 on Jesmond Dene.

Why not just get some headers and baffles.

The only company currently making an OT pipe like what you have now is Rewarder

http://www.rewarderheaders.com/OT.asp

Glenwood Marine makes an aluminum pipe assembly also
