Looks like the same model I have on a houseboat. That's the one that they made from 90 to 93 I think. It's worth the $1900 that it went for just for the parts. Mine is currently in pieces over at the boat shop waiting for parts. Not to many of these out there.

Would that be Terry Bollenger? Thought he was getting an Outerlimits?

HP ,haven't GPS'd the boat yet. I have the Gaffrig GPS analog speedo , but
missing the receiver. Terry had 383 strokers in this boat with superchargers
running 84 ish . I have two new 6.2 MX 377's in now. Boat can be a handful WOT
if not trimmed properly. Smartcraft show 5000 rpm with 15 1/4 X 26 P Bravo 1's .
So it's all good in the power band. I'm looking into some GPS units [ Garmin 276C
and similar] that will come with the VLC bare wire hookup for the Gaffrig.

PM "Knarly" or is it "Knarly Charlie", he runs a KC behind a blown 454. Also do an archive search on this forum.

What year is it? If it is a late King 92-96 it will have a water pickup in the lower unit. Image of lower unit (http://www.dougrussell.com/partscatalog/volvo_omc/index.cfm?fuseaction=comp&group=1384&GroupList=1376,1377,1378,1379,1380,1381,1382,1383, 1384,1385,1386,1387,1388,1389,1390,1391,1392,1393, 1394,1395) I hope it is a late unit since they have cone clutches and the early one use dogs and don't shift nearly as smooth.
