Whats up with the 4 hoses @ the t - stat housing and the "tees' @ the water pump entry, is it actually running a thermostat? I have not seen that setup :o

from what everyone has said that has done the energizer conversion its MORE than worth it.  lowers the rpms and raises the mph.  only problem is that it requires sending the whole pump out to be redone, and it costs like half of what my boat is even worth.  60mph is fine with me.

 prolly shuda moved this to the tech section but what's a ballpark fig $$ on energizer compared to berk conversion (glasswork/pump purchase/install)?  I won't holdya to guesstimates ...      just wunderin

the energizer kit is like a $2500 upgrade, and in teh end you still have a panther intake, which i hear has some issues with the "spoon" thats supposed to load the top of the impeller in a stock panther. 

unless you have a ton of coin, or the boat means a lot to you, just take your motor and buy a boat with a berk in it.
