I need the flush kit for an Alpha SS. The one pictured above looks like it will work. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I bought this boat from Wette Vette's father. It's an '88 Baja Sunsport 196 with a high-compression 500HP SBC and 150HP nitrous shot. The Alpha SS works because the boat is so light. They ran 82 MPH, 86.5 MPH on 100HP shot of nitrous with a 26P Spinelli prop. I've been trying to enhance it over the winter. It needs more air, so I propped the hatch open 3/4" with rubber stand-offs. That gave me enough clearance to move from an 8X3" FA to a 10X3" FA with some screens removed. I also added a bottle heater and pressure gauge to make sure I'm getting good flow on that nitrous. The boat has sort of a retro look with the metalflake gelcoat and angled lines, so the name Nostalgic seems to fit.

Yes it is. My SS drive had low water pickups...I'm assuming Plum Crazy's does too.

Plum crazy, I had an alpha SS, all you have to do is go down to the hardware store and pick yourself up a Y fitting for an outside hose bib, then by some, fittings for the Y that screw onto the ends and have a barb fitting for clear plastic hose that fits the water intakes of the Drive. When you put the hose into the intakes put a little tape over them so that the water pressure does'nt push them out. It will probably cost you about 10.00. Used it for years and it worked like a charm.
