Hulls / Cavitation plates
« on: June 17, 2012, 07:04:31 AM »
A friend of mine who has quite a bit of marine knowledge suggested I put cavitation plates on the back of my boat. He claims it will be faster and smoother in rough water. The boat is a 1977 Rogers Super Cyclone 18. Any thoughts or comments on this.

Thanks,

Rob

Engine Mechanical / Electrical / 454 Cam for jet
« on: March 04, 2012, 08:23:35 AM »
I am rebuilding the 454 for my Rogers Super Cyclone. The motor was origional and never apart before. Its a rectangular port 454 high performance casting block and heads. I don't want to go crazy on this one as I have a tendency too on motors and I don't want to be tuning and adjusting all the time out in the water. I have done some mild porting to the heads which are open chamber type. I am running headers, a Team G manifold, 850 Holler DP, and a recurved HEI. The jet is a Berkley that was rebuilt by Harmon Marine a couple of years ago with a B impellar. What would be a good camshaft for this combination? I am going to shoot for around 10.1 compression. When I first got the boat it had a cast iron two plane manifold and transom type exhaust. Motor was pretty tired as was the jet I later found out, but still mustered 62 mph on the river with GPS at 4200rpm. After adding headers, Team G manifold with 1 inch spacer and rebuilding the jet it got up to 4500 rpm. Never GPS checked it but I would guess that is a little better than 65. Don't know what these boats did fresh out of the factory but thought I would make some minor changes for improvements without going to crazy on $$$$ and reliability.

Thanks

Hulls / 1977 Rogers
« on: March 02, 2012, 06:45:20 AM »
How many different models did Rogers make in the 70's? There isn't much information that i can find for Rogers. Looking at what pictures I can find the hull looks like a Bonneville or Cyclone except the deck doesn't flare up at the dash, it is flat. I assume the flare up is called a bubble deck but not sure. Once I can figure how to post a picture I will.
