As most of you know Jimpen and me have been tackling the task of the winter winger redo's. I am not going as far as Jimpen with repainting my boat but I am in the process of rerigging and powder coating. I have decided to buy a nitrous motor for the boat which was formally Andy Ralls winger motor built by "The Bostick". Here are some previous pictures of the boat and pictures of parts and building process. Will keep this thread updated as the process continues. Enjoy!

Andy's 461, have alot to live up to with this motor. I got it carb to pan with no nitrous or regulators. Some powdercoating has been done and the manifold is currently at B1 racing getting re plumbed.

Tanks and new rails mounted. Colors are 20 gloss black and anthracite grey.
"RTCP"

Scoop tray built. And a couple other goodies. Still waiting on a completely new ignition system and fuel pump.

I generally prefer multi-color paint schemes, but the blue on this hull looks awesome.
Good job Dennis.

Thanks Keith! I am planning to add something maybe next year! Got our hands full with Jim's boats and don't need two projects.

Badass build! G&J is awesome. I'll have to catch a ride in this beast this summer.

Another good AN shop is Sweet Performance in Placentia. He's a fellow boater and he makes all of the fittings he sells. Its a huge difference as they assemble much easier than most others. No bloody finger tips! lol

Thanks guys! And Jordan when I get it done ill give you a ride. G&J is just 10 mins away from me and have been going there way before I ever got into boats and was still doing cummins swaps. Things are coming together hope to pick up intake on Saturday along with Chris to do a once over of my float to get what I can out of it.

Damn that engine is getting more evil looking ever time you post a new picture of it. BTW were you running your old pump to a relay or straight to the switch? Just curious why it's so slow.

Here are some pics like I said this is a project that was barely started.
We got it off a demo job. If you look close it was actually a Tudor that was cut a shortened before I got it. Body was so rough I figured I couldn't make it worse so I did a 4.5 chop to it and built the frame. It's on my to do list but gonna be a while before it get momentum. Lol

ha thanks! Was a rough couple days. Seemed like every step forward we went two steps back, but I was really happy with everything, had no wiring issues except forgetting to hook up fuel pump ground and fuse for the nitrous. Went to go start it for the first time and started right up with timing right on 36*. Gotta button up the wiring and should be set to test in 2 weeks. 👍👍

That's great to hear, new to this as well. Father was in it back in the 70's & 80's when my Grandmother was alive living in Parker. 2nd generation boat ... Dad bought it brand new from the LA Boat Show in 76' ... So I have the actual display boat from that show. All original just need a full resto. (Weather beaten, floor rot, metal flake faded, ect. It's a 76' Anthony (Not to many out there) Jacuzzi Jet WJ and a 455 Olds ... Obviously I'll be ripping most of it out. I want a Berk with a 454 BBC.
So I'll be hoping to dump some stuff when I start ripping everything out.
I'll take all the help I can get! In the process to have all the paperwork transferred over, Dad can't find the titles but are in his name. Going to have it transferred over to me soon.

Ok let's try this again, hopefully I got this fuel issue handled, just added bleeds to both regulators, added a extra 40 micron filter before regs, drilled and tapped Y for pressure before regulators, and switch to magnafuels lighter return spring to get pre-reg fuel pressure down to 20 psi. And getting carb gone through before next test. I hope I have this fixed I wanna hit that lil blue button so bad!!!!

Ok well I hopped on the band wagon of the "who's gonna have the nicest gullwing this year" trend. After going through all of 2016 watching everyone with there projects I really started to feel down on mine. It's really needed paint for about 2 years and we all know as we see better ideas needed to be rerigged. And I have a brand new motor coming for 2017. I have a lot of new ideas for this year. Not gonna spill all the beans but boat will be blue again but will have a lil something extra as well. But for now this is what I have accomplished so far.
BECKY WITH THE GOOD HAIR!

Just out of curiosity, why sanding vs using a paint stripper?
You'd probably get more responses if you said "stripper". ;D

💁🏼 boat is almost done. As most of you know jimmy todds dad painter mike painted the boat. Boat will have all new rigging, electronics, and actual horsepower compared to most of you guys on the list. Rigging will be done by nick at madskillz, all plumbing/wiring will be me. Pump will be done by Chris at b1 along with the calgo conversion. James is building a 14:5:1 555 dual dominator deal. Shooting to be done by/around may. Hoping to run the TE/9.0 or whatever the new adba index will be with lil to no nitrous. I'll keep the thread updated as things progress. I alsobam going dark side and doing dolly trailer and enclosed. Boat will see plenty of river time this year but will be rigged primarily to race.

Gotcha. Yeah I fought with that with my new deal. I had gotten some 14:1 Pistons with the block but they weren't any good and I just didn't want to have to run C12 or higher. I settled on 13:1 so I can run the regular 110 race gas. Yours should be a nasty SOB when it's done! What heads did you go with?
