Yeah im getting in line for him. Gonna round the keel, setback the pump, low pro intake, jet away, rebuild the pump and probably some other chit I can't think of right now.

Nice I am actually headed down there today.

Well got her wet for the first time yesterday. First hurdle was a dead battery. The last owner always disconnected the battery after each use. I turned it over at the house to make sure the battery was good and it fired right up. Just left it hooked up for like 30 min while I picked up my buddy, beer and headed to the lake and by the time I got there it was stone cold dead. Still cant figure out what is drawing on it. Already ordered a painless disco switch.

Then she fired right up and ran started idling around and ran pretty good. About two min later realized I had taken on some water. Got back to the ramp and realized the last owner had pulled the block water drain plugs to winterize it since the boat was up in Oregon. Not something I'm used to checking here in sunny so cal. Ran to the hardware store and grabbed two plugs and after that was smooth sailing.

Well after getting the kinks worked out I got her cruising. I love the way this thing rides I've never riden in a Daytona before. Didn't really get on it at all probably topped out around 50-55. Previous owner said he got it on radar at 79 with this setup.  Don't need another speeding ticket at puddingstone. Plan on taking her to Elsinore next week with a different engine to really open her up.

Looks like yours has been changed a bit from the factory, seats have been moved back and steering column extended which is a good thing.  My engine is coming forward 8",
and seats set back like yours.  They perform better that way and the back seat is useless anyway.

Mine ran right at 80 with a .30 over 454, 11-1, and dual 660's.

Is yours a round or flat keel?

Yeah the set back seats and steering is really all ive noticed that was changed.

Nice are you planning on changing the power in that thing when you put it back together?

And it is a flat keel but hoping to change that in the next few weeks. Is yours flat? you planning on changing that?

Clean 👌. Saw it when you got it on your IG account! Also saw you were gonna take her for a dip today but forgot your keys. Keep us updated on how it runs.


"RTCP"

Thanks. Yeah those keys won't be leaving the boat anymore. And today I just wanted to go put around with the engine that it came with. Gonna try again tmrw. Its just a crate 454 nothing special. But planning on yanking that on Thursday and still am figuring out what will be put back in it. I have a few options I'm contemplating.

Hey guys been lurking for a long time and learning on this site while working on my old man's boat. Been to a couple of events with the old man's boat and finally got one of my own.

Picked up this 1977 19' Eliminator Daytona at the end of December up in Oregon and have been to busy to do anything to it. Went out to the races at Parker this past weekend to tow hoe for my dad again and got the fire stoked again.

So this is what I got to start with and got a lot of big plans for her. Hoping to make it out to the Parker race in April and run SE and keep working my way up.
