Just talk to him to get some more info he says the boat is the real deal a real runner and dialed in boat runs close to the 130 MPH :o I had no idea that it was setup to run that hard  :thumbup: good luck with the sale.

All want is 90mph before the end of this year.  O0

Im looking for a set of BBC Bassett shorty headers. I have a set of twisties that were rechromed last year, also the lines were replaced last year. I don't mind trading or buying them used from someone who might have extras laying around. If your looking to trade, I have plenty of things to work out with.  ;D

Ebay or Craiglist speeds were used. Anything is possible, but that's a steep increase in speed.

Using resin and sheets of fiberglass is the starting point. Unless you know how to paint and use gel, I would leave that to a professional, if you want a near perfect finish. I thought about repairing a few little holes that I have, but wouldn't paint or gel coat it myself. Fiberglassing is easy business for a first timer, such as myself. I just fiberglassed my bulkhead and it came out fine. Now the front of my top hull doesn't shake anymore.  ;D

I used epoxy paint when I did mine. Call me up if you need help. I'm off the rest of the month, so I have nothing but time. I have a few before and after pics posted up here.

well my little problem was solved. whoever had the carb before i got ahold of it, screwed it up. the secondaries wouldn't open and primaries were maxxed out at the current WOT. i picked up a new carb and fuel system, so it should really open now. i have a bronze b/c cut impeller with inducer, ect.. so it should work a lot better now. the only thing i have to do is hide the bank statement from my wife.  ;D

hey marc, I have a question for you. I went out today for some testing and kept on woundering why I kept hitting 4500 and it wouldn't budge anymore. I pull up to the shore and check the carb. I disconnected the cable and pulled the cable bracket on the carb, and it's maxxed out, not allowing it to go anymore. The carb is a 4150 double pumper 750 cfm Holley. It hasn't been rebuilt in the three years that I've had it, so I'm thinking I either need to or get a better carb. I have a pretty much stock 454 with a 282 crane cam and flat top pistons.


What adjustments do I need to do to open it up more.  Thx

No problem, just a good thing I flipped around on you guys.
All I wanted to do was check out the boat too. Just remember that the speedo on my car read 70mph.  ;D

I went Monday, I'm going tomorrow and I'll be back on the 23rd.

It's been awhile since I posted here. I picked this up a few months back and just doing a little work here and there. Pretty much stock 454 with a berkeley pump. I took it to Vic's shop last night for a bit of impeller shaving.
