OK Guys, I blew enough smoke about getting a '30 but that is not going to happen right now. Instead I am gonna give my '24 some lovin'. I should be getting my motor pulled tomorrow. Once it is opened up and I know what I have to work with I will make my motor plans.

Check out my outdrive stand that I built ....

I took Patrick's addvice and took out the back seat.

Full hydraulic steering to the helm.

Hey Bash,

I thought about one of those motors, I could drop one in and be on the water next week. That would only give me 40 more HP. I'm thinking a little more than that.

Hey Dave ,
Good luck with your project. Sounds like you have big plans for the motor. It should be a real screamer when your done . Keep us posted with pics as the project moves along . Hope to see you in cambridge!!!

I was their last year and thought what am doing?Its only a bravo, 600hp is great but can I get the power to the water.

Pat McPherson

Hey Dave,
What is the goal?
500HP will push her close to 85mph...
Hopefully your engine does not have too much internal damage!
You can reuse the block, crank, rods and maybe the heads to build a nice 500HP engine.

Pat McPherson

Hey Dave,
Did you pull that engine yet?
Open it up yet?
