Does anyone have any detailed photos of how their wiring looks? Just looking for some 'clean" ideas..thanks in advance!!!

So I understand that water is injected through the motor via the pump while it's in the water..but when the boat is on the trailer at home and the garden hose is pumping wafer through the engine, does that water also get injected back through the pump? I'm just thinking, "how does the pump get lubricated during on the trailer test n tune?"..besides the oil that's in the pump..doesn't the pump use water to cool as well?..

Well Ive been doing a TON of research(the small block 400 was just one idea ive seen and the closed loop cooling system totaly makes sence to me..) and Ive seen alot of different boats, setups, opinions, watched vidoes and read alot of forum posts from all over the country and canada. I just dont see many guys running the SB...I know a small block can be built up for cheaper than a BB and the power: weight ratio with a badass pump setup, to me, would run laps around a BB. I love the BBC(I built one myself in my pickup[468]) so im already biased to the BB but the numbers just make sence to run a SB....

Now the closed loop cooling system...why not just run the same setup as a pickup truck? It'll keep all the sand out of the water ports, theres no fuckin with the goddamn water valves(no half turn this, half turn that BS), and you can have the motor run at a consistent temp, just like a car. Id run a super cool tstat maybe in the 160 degree range. Might put a couple 1/8" in the face of the stat to get a little more flow for those long poker runs...if you still wanted to run wet stacks, still use the tap off the pump housing, run your plumbing accordingly, but place a gate between the housing and headers. Also with a closed loop system the chance over over pressuring the water system by having a valvhe open too far or the other being closed too much and blowing a head gasket reduces drastically..I dont actually own a boat myself but Im really interested in seeing what other people have to say about these theories...great numbers/less weight and worry free/consistant cooling...doesn't seem like rocket science lol I look forward to the comments

Has there been any prior post about anyone doing a complete rebuild on any cruiser or mini cruiser?

I understand the concept of a place diverter( 4 way nozzle movement) and its supposed to adjust for better "plaining" out the hull but I haven't seen if people use a rideplate/shoe setup WITH a place diverter...

What is the purpose of moving the intake/pump? Ive been reading about people setting their pumps back...does anyone move them forward?

hey fellas i might be posting in the wrong forum but i saw electrical and figured id give it a shot...now ive been around boats and the water my entire life but one thing i keep noticing is most of yalls boats dont have navigation lights. Ive seen the suction cup light and that would explain the absent lights. but i dont even see pop up or flush mounted lights. i understand the clean flush look and all..but what about the legality? Do you guys with no lights at all just go in by dusk? And why not get some really clean looking SS flush mount LED "below-deck" lights? Are those types not CG approved? Do you still have to use a "topside" bow light if the "below-deck" lights are legal? Are the laws pretty much the same for CA, AZ, and NV? Oh, are boating classes required in either of those three states? sorry that one is off topic.. just wanna get all my ducks in a row..lol thanks guys!!

whats the difference between a cheetah hull vs a sanger or rogers? the vee on the cheetah looks similar to the tahiti hull as well...

is the Bonneville hull really uncommon?? I've heard once they are taken into possession they are never given up... little insight??
