here are some pics of my 75 18' Nordic, bought the boat from the original owner. all original interior and gel coat, motor has been redone a year ago but when I picked it up from him it was detonating and would barley run, had a cracked head, 5 tuliped valves, and blown head gaskets. fixed all that, has olds 455 .030 over with speedpro pistons and rods, 510 lift cam, heads redone to match, added tunnel ram and demon 800 carb, pump has A impeller with diverter, let me know what you guys think? HP, speed, just general thoughts. Thanks!!

Nice classic...my trailer sports the same Moony wheels.
My brother had the same hull w/a stock 455(no tunnel ram) with a Berk A impeller. Think he was in the 65 mph range. His olds ran good all day every day. BUT...we did but external oil drains on the heads.
Good luck, have fun, be careful.
