The new ignition will be installed today. I was running a UNILITE and now going to Pertronix.
Hopefully the changes will be positive...
Rewarder TT headers w/ 2 1/4" primaries instead of logs
Pertronix instead of a Unilite
A impeller instead of a AA
Blueprinted pump and a Place Diverter also changing out the sport loader for a stock grate per HallettDaves recommendation.

The cut and buff will have to wait for after the trip.
Im still not done with paint. Still want to do something on the freeboard and some touchup on small spots.

It could go either way at this point...opted for cut vynel AZ numbers becuase there s not enough time to paint them...
Still have to do exaust...some wiring and install interior... then pack wheel bearings...
Definitely wont be doing the cut and buff because I still need to build up alot more clear. Also won't be getting the vynel for the side panels for 2 weeks but on a good note it will get fired up today:D

I have come to the realization this boat is not going to make it this weekend will be in a deck boat but it will make it Father's Day weekend at Big River... The point is I will be on the river and not going to miss this event. Can't wait to meet everyone there!

Nope no third bracket it looks like alot is hanging over on the sides but its the picture. I will be going to my dad's machine shop and making aluminum steps on his CNC mill.
I'm going to use 3/8 plate, rough cut the profile and have it hard anodized and then finish the profile. Wherever it was cut will be a nice machined edge.

I decided to put the dumps in the exhaust.  Hopefully they are not too close. Im trying to avoid any chace of reversion and keep the exaust hose cool since they are below the water line.
