I just got one a couple of months ago and it is fantastic and coulnd not be more pleased with the motor and the service I have recived from WaterThunder you can't go wrong.
 
Thunder. That's about what I was looking for.we mainly do a lot of hill running.so I need something that will take a beating.we run hardbees bone dry and you know how that gets.I have a GO480 now I am selling it to build a bigger boat and hopefully get better fuel mileage.the boat runs awsome it just sucks gas .10 gallons an hour.how about 500 H.P.
 
500hp Is the best all around motor in my opinion. I have several people who have been beating the snaught out of them, they are extremely reliable. And generate a ton of push and sip fuel compared to the alternatives. I will PM you with 500HP prices.
 
Thunder I never got a price on a 500 H.P. Motor.also what prop do you recomend with that combo.
 
It depends on what you like in a airboat. I recommend either the three blade wide blade 78 Sensenich or the 77" Ultra wide Q series. Does sound matter much to ya, do you prefer snap over push there is also a difference with fuel economy. I PMed you a price for a 500HP LS with a 2.68 Rotator rated for 1,000HP.
 
Tony, I have the 500HP LS1. I'm very pleased with it. I have had it for about 6 months now and it runs like a champ. If you would like to see it in action let me know. Fire25 has the 450HP version and we are planning a ride soon. It might make your decision easier by seeing both engines in action. I was a diehard aircraft guy until I got ahold of this engine. It runs dry with ease and goes thru stuff with 4 fat guys on it that I can't believe.
 
Let me know when you all get together to ride I would like to ride with you and get some pic's if you don't mind!
 
You guys going to be at kissimmee on oct 7.I will be there on Saturday with some guys from lake county ABC.
 
I will see you there I believe ten or so WaterThunder powered LS1 boats will be there (I hope to get a cool group pic) most are 450HP and 500HP and a few big dawgs also. I can give ya a ride or let you drive one if your interested in a motor.
 
Sounds good I'm sure everybody will be at the bus.I would like to see all the differnt boats and motors.
 
TONY, I HAVE THE 450 ON A 14 BY 8 HAMANT. AWESOME BOAT AND MOTOR. BOTH HAMANT AND THUNDER ARE GOOD PEOPLE TO DEAL WITH. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH WHAT I HAVE.
 
THUNDER, SINCE YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE MY BOAT THIS WEEK, YOU ARE WELCOME TO HOOK UP WITH TONY AND TAKE HIM FOR A RIDE. I CAN ASSURE HIM THAT HE WILL BE IMPRESSED.
 
That's funny I like that, we made a test run to oak head last night with a new stroker motor. I tell you what that new pavilion at Winder is nice I will be mad as hell if some punk vandalizes it because right now it the nicest structure I have seen StJohns management put up and it at a scenic spot. What an awesome sunset on the lake last night.
 
Thanks for the offer Wood. I plan to run your boat Sunday on the StJohns. I will take some tools and set your motor height and pitch and play with the motor a little a bunch of us are going to Lone Cabbage for lunch and can let my wife drive my boat up there when I test yours. Sniper wait to you see my web site it's looking sharp. I used booth your pic's.
