    Hi all this is my motor project. I have this up posted over at The Inside Line.com Sorry if you have allready sean it. Didn't get a lot of intrest so I thought I'd see what you guys think.
    I thought I would show ya'll what I'v been up to this winter. My boat is a 2004 Wyatt's Performance 24' Lightning. When I bought the boat from Wyatt it had a 496" BBC w/ a 850 carb and 100 hp shot of nitrous. The boat ran good , it would run 104 mph w/ perfect conditions. That was pretty good but I wanted more. I called a good friend of mine Bert at Moore Machine Shop, and we started ordering parts.
    This is how the boat looked

    The first thing we ordered was a set of Brodex BB2+'s w/ big valves and 750 # springs. the exhaust valves are Inconell. Bert did a full port job on the heads and I polished the ports and the combustion chambers.

    Next I ordered a hard roller blower cam that is a 642-642 lift 114* center line, I also ordered a set of Comp Pro Magnum cromemolly roller rockers, w/ a set of new push rods that fit the new rockers and Brodex heads. After we got some new parts I pulled the motor out of the boat and we tore it down. We preped the blocked by plate honeing, but I pulled the threds out of one of the head bolt holes when instaling the torque plate, so next we drilled and taped the bad hole so we could put in a helacoil.

    next Bert plate honed the block

    What we did next is a little diffrent, we drilled holes in the block and installed jets that spray oil on the bottom of the pistons to cool them and help fight detonation

    When we had the block preped we installed the Calico coated bearings
    http://www.hotboatpics.com/pics/data..._and_mains.JPG
    after the bearings were installed I set the Scat 4.250 stroke crank

    Now it was time to torque the mains.

    We went ahead and installed the valve covers to keep things clean w/o the rockers because they had not come in
    http://www.hotboatpics.com/pics/data...lve_covers.JPG
    After the intake was on we set the Chiller housing from Boost Power it has a 6-71 type top and a 420 type bottom.(to make it possible to fit the EFI injectors in the intake below the blower.
    http://www.hotboatpics.com/pics/data/500/3552ciller.JPG
    Now it was time to put on the blower( it's a baby 6-71 but I already had it so ...)
    http://www.hotboatpics.com/pics/data...ing_blower.JPG
    Now to show you what I'm running for the induction system, it will have 16 electronic injectors, 8 above the blower in a plte from Boost Power and 8 below the blower in the intake
