Definitely post build pictures! Can't wait to see it. I love this boat, just wish it had at least a rudimentary cabin to escape from rain or bad weather in a pinch.
Uncle Dave, the Howard Bullet you are speaking of actually has a 5.0l Whipple TPI engine in it and it hit 130mph.

Fantastic. what are you using for power?
I was counting on low to mid 90's wit the 710.
Is this 2750 your fist Lavey?

I'm running an HP500, 3.3 Whipple, AFR Heads, and the Imco with the Hering. I have had some bottom work done and it made all the difference in the world. At speed you can run hands off with no tabs, no chine walking, no porpoising, just fast and smooth. It's my second Lavey, first one was the XTC 21 footer with the HP500- great boat, as is the 2750.

Check my reply above. Mine is a closed bow and estimated power is close to 800 according to the guys that did the work. As for handling, the bottom work made all the difference. It is now an awesome boat to drive at any speed and any water.

Oh ok was yours the one that Brent Leach did the work on? I think I talked to you a while back about the work you had done and I'm now looking at having Brent do some work on my boat.

Yes, mine was the one he worked on. I don't believe he is working out of ECM's facility tho, are you in contact with him? He really knows his stuff and you won't go wrong with him. He's also a very nice guy.

I guess you should probably call the guys at ECM and ask them about Brent's whereabouts and also whether or not they do any bottom work themselves.
Sorry I can't be of more help- I'm just thankfull he was around to do the job on my boat along with alot of help from ECM.
