Pipedog Checkout Brain Tooley new ls shaft rocker setup as well

Make sure your clearance are set right for a high volume oil pump. I personally would run a stock pressure and oil pump but polish the bypass and shim the spring. If you don't have the trunnion upgrade yet look at the brain tooley shaft kit not much more then the trunnion upgrade I ran a stock 5.3 w...

This ought to be interesting.

Always like to see the stuff you come up with

Pipedog They make the spring not a reseller I have tried to do a little research and find companies the building there own products. There are only a few that actually make the product any more. Like Manton pushrods If you need a crank and rods I would look at Molanar, they don't make the product bu...

If they are the Comp 918 springs do a search they have had issues in the past.

Check out PSI Valve Springs

Hamant airboats carries them

And if your on the SA facebook the are several guys the have them

Also Stainless Steel is the only way to go in my opinion

Thank you sir

That little boat ran good for what it was. Saw it at juniper a time or two

Yes there were a few, best one I saw was built by cntry141iq on here. I think it was a 1600cc, had a reduction on it and it was on a special little hull he had alumitec build. Ran great. Pics and in his pic gallery on the 3rd page just don't know how to post them. Unfortunately Cnrty passed sometime...

I have stripped a factory harness down to the basics but never got to try it out. Got a deal on a Holley HP system and TBSS intake. Waiting til after fishing season here to make any changes. There are a few people that have had great luck with the stock efi setups. TBSS Or newer truck intake with st...

For Quiet exhaust search for comments by cntry141iq he built one of the quietest boat I have ever been around. I think he ran a summit RV muffler. I ran a stock carbed 5.3 on a 14x7-6 alumitec used several different gear ratio's but the 2.55 and 2.68 performed the best. Boat is used for fishing the ...

WOW sad day for sure.

Yea we've done ok a lot of mostly mid slot fish with a few close to 27". Have caught a few small snook 12-16", everything we caught was at the bottom of tide with an offshore breeze. Very low water fishing lol. Few nice trout over 21".

Best money to spend would be on a 2:37 belt drive some of the later models you can swap out the gears.

Call Century

I run a 03 6.0 on a 14x7-6 SS rigging and a hybrid cage. 2.55 oxbox with a 81.5 R blade set just before pitch mark3 - motor turns 5200. All of the stuff I have done had been on 02-04 genIII engines built on a super tight budget. Motor is a stock bottom end unknown milage, I did inspect the bottom en...

What is the prop length from tip to center of the hub, what is your WOT rpm and what pitch mark the blades set on?

You could also call Century and see if your belt-drive house will work with a 2.37:1 gear set

Proto Op said was told stock 03 from a Vette. Offered factory HP for both models of vette motor for that year. It did appears he may not know what motor he, so I offered up a few item to help figure out the base motor he was working with. If it was an iron block it did not come from a corvette plus ...

Pics are fine and I understand Working with what you have within a budget. 1st it looks heavy. has a lot of nose weight with all the lights, has rod boxes and look like an extra rod box. Think the radiator looks very close to the prop. Hard to get clean air that way. My thoughts are the radiator dow...

Well if it is an 03 From a corvette they offer 2 options ls1 and LS6. Both are aluminum block, so if is an iron block it is not an LS1 or LS6. Main difference is heads and cam. Factory rating ls1 350hp LS6 400hp. You have no Power steering pump or A/C so maybe a tad over those numbers. IF the heads ...

Yes sir need a little bit more info and maybe a few pics. Hartlines were originally built for the gulf, they are heavy and have a 2degree v at the rear to help them track. That is if I can remember correctly. Buddy C1gator has a 16' x8 hartline has poly with a stock ls1 2.55 stinger and a 82" w...
