Yes 1988. Drove out to Havasu n picked her up from original owner stored indoors her entire life maybe 200 hrs on Her. Like new. Couldn't be happier. Searched 4 yrs n more miles than I care to say to get there n find a piece of Shit. Not what I was sent pics of. N I'll leave it at that.

another update, sons all healed up and a lot has happened, we dynoed motor on  Vrbansic brothers dyno, 815hp and 725 ft lbs @6600, perfect for the jet boat!
installed motor and took boat back to b-1 for Chris to finish his part, he installed pump,calgo,heavy duty diverter pump, made bracket to support  front seats.

we ran 2 classes this weekend 10.0 and super "e", boat was being super consistent sat afternoon 1st rd of super we dialed in a 9.80 and ran a 9.82
sun morning dialed in a 9.79 and ran a 9.79 next round we broke out or got beat can't remember. Went a couple of rounds in 10.0 and broke out running a 9.96
All weekend we needed to slow boat down but didn't really know how to access msd box to set limiters.

NJBA April race, Got a tuning lesson from Chris and was ready to get after it at this race! We set when the diverter was going to start coming up one tenth of a second faster
a put a rev limiter on it for a couple of thenths. 1st pass off the trailer thing went 9.85 at 102, ok now let's put some more rev limiter in it and try to get to the magic # of 10.0
next round it started to misfire and make some noise on the rope, WTF! drove it to other end and put it on the trailer, start pulling plugs etc. #2 cylinder spark plug looks
all beat up. Exhaust seat cam out of head, should have known better than try and run my old heads that were fixed once before! So pulled motor back out, got some new brodix
heads, had to bore block .030 and 8 new pistons. So this is where we are now, block was bored earlier this week, heads are polished and being worked on and motor will be re-assembled.
Back to dyno and see where we are.  In the meantime we are trying to finish the stuff we didn't have time to do, replace bunks on trailer, get carpet installed in boat, get Brian over
to do lettering etc etc. Should be back 1st of August and do some river time with it and see where we will get on the top 10 list! last pic it's sitting on see-doo cart in my garage
