that is a real classic old boat. seats need to go and the back to back bench needs to go back in just like Rudy would do it.

Don't you need a bigger engine with both Jet & V-Drive? I'd think you wouldn't quick off the line.

Damn that looks a hell of a lot like my old boat. Except mine had a 413 had a lighter red stripe, and as far as I know, it's still at the bottom of Lake Michigan :(

Last I knew Sacramento was still in California. But, Hey throw the 421 in there with that 440 and hook it up to the jet. Prop underneath & jet out the back. Bingo best of both worlds! OR drive the jet off of the flywheel and the vdrive off of the front of the crank and use the 421 for an anchor. God I love engineering!

no no you got it all wrong. You have to hook up the v drive so that it forces water into the jet. CAN YOU DO ANYTHING RIGHT? :hammerhea

Looks like "How Not" to sell your classic v-drive to me!
I agree, the seats gotta go. But it looks like a nice old rig otherwise.
