I would like to see what some of you guys can do..I have a 1977 Centurion tunnel and am trying to modify and wedge my diverter to blow the ultamate tail.. Right now I can do 48 ft. high and 200ish long.. I will have good pics to post Monday if all goes well this weekend.. LETS SEE UM!!!

Am I reading this right. You are doing special mods for one reason, A bigger roost???
I have to admit, I like throwing a good roost like the rest, but my mods are focused on go faster stuff.
How do you know it is 48 feet high?

We have markers on the underpasses that tell how high the water is and we always try to blow water up on the interstate as we go under it and that is my height gauge.. I have found out that you go fast or are very dependable and this is my dependable boat so I am tweaking the tail..

I have a 4* wedge in right now. Is there some kind of modification I can do to the diverter to get MORE roost?
Or do I need to get more wedge.

These are some cool pics guys.. My boat has 7 degrees of wedge and the diverter has alot of modifications done to the nozzle.. Hours of grinding.. My boat is a pretty rare bird I think.. When it sets in the water, the nozzle is right at the surface of the water and when you move it up it will be several inches out of the water.. I hope to get it finished up to go to the lake this weekend and I will show you guys pics you won't believe.. Do any of you know of any more 1977 Centurion tunnel hulls?

Here's mine. Not much, but, I'm gonna upgrade my motor to about 2000hp
and I'm currently working on fabbing a 30 degree wedge
and a new double-articulating Place Diverter monkey motha ****a.
I figure I'll have a top speed of about 13 mph accompanied with a shitty ride,
but I estimate a roost about 250 tall and 20 feet long. :) :rolleyes: :crossx:

That is a thread within itself :) Don't get me wrong, I told him NO and he kept after me to let him. I said it's gonna hurt like a bitch. He said it can't be any worse then being peppered by paint ball gun. I said I didn't know about that cause I've never been shot with one but I was shot with BB guns in BB gun fights as kids (which I don't recommend). So finally I gave in and said ok but I'll swing you threw it. So that pic was of him going threw it. He said it hurt but not as bad as paint balls hitting him. He's CRAZY!! More or less he just wanted to say he tubed in the rooster.
