1) Change out remaining gauges from red to blue "Super Bezel". (oil pressure, oil temp, water temp)
2) All new stereo mounted in cuddy with cool custom billet plate on dash panel where old stereo was, with led lights and new Clarion remote.
3) Removed shore power and shore water plugs from outside of boat and relocated on inside for cleaner look.
4) Pulled A/C intake off bottom of boat and mounted in transom, removed hook from bottom and trued bottom of hull.
5) pulled engines and replaced stock merc cam with Crane 471 cam.
6) Relocated batteries from under back seat to engine compartment with blue billet battery boxes.
7) Added custom built alum diamond plate tool box to Myco trailer.
That is enough and more then I had planned. The custom dash plate is finished and at the powder coaters, the gauges are here, the engines are out of the boat and one is finished and the hull goes to the fiberglass shop Monday, and I'll finish up the stereo when all the above is complete.

Talk to Mark S. (My Way) about the lights before you do anything, he can hook you up with the LEDS, and they are by far cooler then the neons. He has a buddy that does the installs.

My Dana headers just came in so it looks like I will be putting them on pretty soon. The wife is beginning to complain about all the boxes in the living room. I thought they looked good in there, but I guess they don't go with the decore!

New stereo: Maybe 6 10's, two amps, and 6 component sets. All Kicker, except for Alpine head unit
Dump the stock mufflers for a set of tips. Anyone done this with a 496mag? Anything else need to be changed as far as a tune? Don't want to run it rich.
