so I'm not just seein things
I just did mine, it was a 1/2in low. The hardest part is cutting out the intake. Hammer Down was a big help. If I can do it so, it's not that hard. I say if you like your boat go for it and do it right.
This was mine

Check this thread. .Intake Help (http://www2.***boat.com/forums/showthread.php?t=98946)
That's his "before" picture. He recognized the problem and corrected it.
Some custom boat builders weren't so custom! :skull:
It was a contured intake that someone machined down. Why ? Don't ask me, why they installed it that way. I have no clue.
I did install the same intake after some mods. Will get some pics tomorrow.
I'm not a body man, but here's some pics

Nice work, did you build up the center on top,in the front? the bottom looks a little less round now.

I welded up the intake and then ground it to the conture of the boat and tapered it to the loader pocket, and sea goin epoxy puddy is some awesome stuff. I plan on trying some other loaders so I did not blend it in. It has speed coat on it and it did not help the pics.
Jim, I dont have pics because I was busy today. I will get pics up tomorrow. Mine looks similar to soakers but instead of being close in the center and off on the outsides its the exact opposite. Mine has the correct intake but the middle portion is raised(.280) and the sides are alot closer.
