Without even opening up or shaking the box I can tell you that you got one hell of a rocket.
I hope you like all the rigging.
I can't wait to this this thing run. Alot of time and effort by everyone to pull it off.
Where are you guys going?

now that is one bad a$$ flatty:jawdrop::D two questions though. in the first pic, what are all the bolts in the floor for, or am i seeint tha wrong? in the second pic, what is the square hole above the transom for? :confused:
All the bolts are to hold the blast plate, cav plate on. (A little excessive though :) ) unless there is something I am missing and could be cause my mind is blank right now. The square hole above the transom is for access, since there is a big tank that will block it from the inside.

To keep the blast plate from sucking down (from propeller suction). Its best that the bottom of the boat stays flat.

Are the headers plated or is that some sort of heat coating? If they are coated would you mind passing along the info on who did them and a location. Thanks, looks very nice I hope everything goes great for ya and be safe.

EMBEE coatings does a real nice job when it comes to ceramic coatings, they are located in Santa Ana CA.
they offer a lifetime guarantee and it ran me roughly 275.00 and ive had them do two sets for me,...quality!
.....and just a 10 day turn around.
