I'm glad you got it!! It's coming together real QUICK Ralph!!! I think your motor will put that boat where it needs to be ......IN front!!!Install looks good too! Let me know when you test, I'd like to go watch.That diverter will really help too. Also, don't forget the fuel cell and weight discussion we had about the "STINKY PINK" !! You are more than welcome to borrow my GPS too. Hang on to that mag kill switch for me too Ralph, thanks.

ran the fuel lines and electrical today what a bitc- the fuel sys fought all the way had to take the tanks out to hook the lines :mad: then no fuel pressure. i found a bad line, the sys wouldnt even prime. oh well getting there but slow. looking back i would've done some things different but it is my first time doing this, when i get it all done i'll go back and redo the things i dont like.
