Hello everybody, I've been busy the last year working, or shall I say being taught, by a couple close friends of mine, Jim engine and pump, and Stu glass and paint, on how to restore my 1976 Nordic Bubble Deck. I've used this website for lots of research but haven't had anything to contribute till now. Since I am a newbie and have way more to learn, I feel I am better off reading then speaking for now, if you know what I mean. But I am very excited about how the project is coming along and wanted to begin sharing it with you all. 

The engine was built by Jim Guthrie. I wanted a motor that could idle, tow skiers, have top end power, and be as low maintenance as possible. I guess I wanted it all and man did he deliver. It's a pump gas 557 Ford with a hydraulic roller cam that put out some impressive power.

The boat is almost done but I have yet to make a slideshow of the boat. When it's completed I'll for surely post it, as Stu did remarkable work as always and delivered an unbelievable paint job!

Here is a link to the dyno video I made.



Thanks
Alex
