Don't be hatin Patch , not my fault you bought a slow boat .
Last time I took my boat out ( this century) it did just fine thank you! I guess it was hard to tell how fast I was from that bench. :smile30: Get this one together, and I guess we can speed test both of them. clap.gif

Sounds like Patch is looking forward to someone building another family cruiser . This one is not supposed to be fast , just a little faster than the average tug boat . But if you want we can line them up , might be fun to see who has the fastest slow boat .

I got one from Autozone this morning , they have them on sale right now for $69.99 . Still higher than Harbor Freight , but it is alot closer .

I have an appointment in a few minutes , and then I should have a little time to get it on the stand and start getting the extra weight off if it . Lots of the parts that came with it are going to be for sale .

Have you been in my Hawaiian? How would you know what it runs? Or are you just guessing on it's speed from the land point of view. I guess if I saw your boat go buy me, I would understand where you are coming from, but since I have never seen you in a boat, my Hawaiian looks pretty freakin fast from that bench at Loves. think.gif It's all good, get that LS running and by that time I will have something ready for ya! :smile30: :smile16:

I am putting an Edelbrock 71187 intake on it . Not decided on the crab yet , probably a 750 or 850 Holley . I am trying to get some input on the cam and heads from people over on the LS forums . I am thinking port the heads and do a cam and springs . Probably find me a little 150 shot of nitrous to spray when people try to go by me in a Hawiian  :evil:

Who said anything about a Hawaiian? I'll be ready come April, will you? think.gif Mite want a bigger shot, but you better put some good slugs in it, because when they make real power with NOS, those crappy pistons like to say see ya! :smile20:
