Thanks! It’s a simple build but I’m happy with it. It was more than I wanted to bite off as the boat is in a remote storage and very little garage space to work with. It’s not something I’d want to do again without a proper shop.

The new game. Will it hold together for ten minutes, ten hours, or ten years??? Lol.

It does sound nice. Play with props a bit if your able i only mention cause your peak hp might be a little higher than you plan on running. Not sure.... I ran a 244-248 installed (4 deg adv) in 496 and peak hp was 5,800 with hyd rollers and 6,000 with tight lash solids rollers. Just throwing it out there.

Along with a catastrophic year to boot. At least proposal A passed here in Michigan. Can't wait to see if the drive through fast food orders get better or WORSE. Low payed construction workers building house smoking weed all day etc. The finished product what ever it may be gonna be interesting. Great it passed regardless. Maybe we'll get more tourism here in the NW. Ya mon!

Ive got a few laying around to play with. So far the favorite prop with the old zz502 was a 25p Rev4 at 5200 with a 1.65 Bravo on the Islander so we’ll see what direction this goes. There’s a pretty good chance that I’ll still get to splash this year.

Ha! If we weren’t getting drained at every corner. A small rental space that was $800mo 5 years ago is $2500+ these days.

That's what I'm saying. You guys are on our news all the time because of it being 500 million times more expensive out there.

Well at least now we have extra smoke from the fires to justify the high costs.

Is the plan to still get the motor dynoed? Take it from someone who really wishes they dynoed their motor when they had the chance, have it dynoed!
