BTW, this is a fast jet boat. According to GPS we were running at 89 mph on Lake Elsinore when backed off the throttle! Probably had another 5 mph in her. VERY STRONG Engine.

Thanks for sending the old pic. I wanted to pay omage to the original with undated twists. Thats why we painted it with the original design. the new twist would be the LS6 motor, covered engine thru transom exhaust. Ill post more pics soon but it would be cool for you to see it complete again.

Engine Mechanical / Electrical / Plumbing help needed for LS Motor install
« on: April 29, 2019, 12:20:44 PM »
I'm in the process of converting a 1977 Howard 18ft from a BBC to a 6.0 LS motor with a berkley jet. I will be using PCM exhaust manifolds and risers and going thru the transom. I am a little confussed on running the water (plumbing) lines. Does anyone have a diagram, pictures or name of anyone that could help sort it out?
