Sick with the jb then...i was reading about something referring to the pros/cons of machining the the veins on the bowl or swapping it out with a denominator bowl?.. the dom bowl is said to be "go to go" vs a modified stock bowl..

Im not sure if this has been posted before...if so, sorry but/and please redirect me to the answers...
If you guys could help clear up a couple questions please... how many different berk pumps are out there, how are they classified and what makes them different? what kind of upgrades/modifications can a person do or have done to them that not gonna break my wallet? and what kind of accessories can be used on them( rudder, different size nozzles, etc)..
The float i have in mind is a 75-77 rogers hull
Im going to build a mild 468 good for 50-5500 all day long( im going to post another topic in the engines forum)
Im looking to build a fun boat, id like carry my family(3 total for now, 5 later down the road), pull a tuber every now and then.. basically be able to cruise around all day long at around 60+/- 10mph.
this is all a learning process for me and all the input is always greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!

so its not jet boat related...well the engine could have been but this is the first 468 i built when i was 21 and in the navy still, this truck is my 1980 scottsdale. she used to be just the red and white but i rolled her, put on the brown cab and then pulled the motor, dropped it in a racevan and he grenaded the block.. the truck went to a farm as yardart lol
I bought the truck in van nuys back in 05 and drove her 1500mi in the first three days up to bremerton wa where i was stationed. from there we had a wild ride, everything from blowing tires off the rims to blowing head gaskets to rebuiding the engine tranny and rear end.
Great truck!! ill definately own another before i die
