    I'm working on the interior now too. I hate the back to back seating, so I'm building new frames for a front bucket/rear cocktail seating arrangement.

    I'm looking to add a droop snoot and place diverter once funds allow. Then I'll get that nice sweet rooster tail and it should come out of the hole a lot better.

    Some of the guys out west with 1000+ hp and pump work can stand them damn near straight up.

    I love the old school look, but alas, I'll run either a hilbon style scoop or the velocity stacks on the new motor. I have the logs and snails to match the flame arrestor.

    It is, sadly. Tops out around 60, but it gets there quick. The hull weighs around 450#, so with some decent power it should scoot, it has a good bottom on it, and is a pretty solid boat.

    Using some charts online I'm guessing it to have ~230HP as it sits. I have a set of better heads to go on the new motor along with a cam change and the TR. Looking for at least 450. 550+ if I decide to stroke it and bump up the compression.

    I don't have any good ones on the phone. The tunnel motor is the new 454 I'm building for it.
