Hell the boats already started...if you can't build one in 2 months from the time you start...you suck

Go by hamant and take your pick

Heck yea. Congrats y'all. One fine boat. That's the best combination of vendors around. Great job to all

Yep me and a buddy went...killed a 250 pound sow

Didn't think you could use LS7 heads on a LS3..the 7 has much bigger intake valve then the LS3 and a bigger cylinder and there's not enough room for them on the smller LS3 cylinder

I got the holley system from Dave and love it.

No

And who are you gonna get to tune it? Because if your gonna try and make 500 horse it's gonna need to be reflashed or an aftermarket ecm...we know you can't do it

Here we go again, not happy and problems with the pro built BBC from 2 years ago, most of you guys have told me all along to go with ls motor, considering this option: $2300 firm 07 truck l76 6.0 aluminum motor. same block as a ls2 but has the l92 square port heads on it. has vvt and dod. was told ...

Better look for motor problems. A DD 350 will turn that

If you can't turn a 70" Q series on 3 any harder than that with a belt box than that thing is a turd! A strong 200 horse 4 cylinder can turn that much prop...

Anything happening for the ride boat class?

Can you get under 44 yet?

You can buy a new one for 125 or so...look on LS1 tech or the vette forums..I used an ATI damper on mine

Get the stuff for the vette...2010 vette stuff will work. It tucks it in the closest and plumbs the cleanest

Single plane intake edlebrock performer , rhs cast heads . I'm cruising at about 25-35 mph . My old boat had same motor with a 1.7 box with a 2 blade Sirius and wot was 5000 and cruise was 3-3100. Idk what else to do Yea you were spinning the shit out of that prop also...major tip speed...hell you ...

Have you tried a longer prop...I don't see you getting your cruise down to 2900 or so with poly,steel rigging and a very mild small block and 80" prop...the saber has been the best cruising prop I've ran by far...it just lacked it down low and out of the hole compared to my R blade

Yea 3"?? That's crazy....

Hamant airboats had some for sale

Call ox drive. 863 581 9710...best warranty on the market and best box imo

What do you consider budget boat?

6k....I don't see you taking pitch out to spin it harder and making your cruise go down. I run an 82" also. I'd start by playing with jacks and motor angle.

Everyone's idea of cruise is different. Weight plays a key role. As well as power,gear,prop and length. My boat will cryise anywhere from 2500 on up depending on how fast I wanna ride. That's deep water crusie

give us a part #

Every motor has a different part#. Your old school sbc isn't the same as an LS. Go to napa they have them or O'riellys

I would take the factory style intake over that holley hi ram aluminum anyday.
