Cricket,
Cool. Is that engine same family as 250/292 chev?
Head studs? What head gasket?
btw, I wondered about re-clocking too.

Yeah man its like the stovebolt inline 6 cylinder just minus two cylinders. No headstuds, just standard smallblock size headbolts right now and whatever Felpro thick headgasket Autozone and Orielleys have in their computer. I blew a chunk right out of the thing though so I guess I need to get some headstuds on the thing. As for the clocking of the turbo, if you look in the last picture you can see how i can't clock the compressor side any more because the wastegate is attatched to the compressor on that turbo. So I have to make some sort of bracket to mount the wastegate canister to. The intake looks goofy but the engine cover hides it at least.  |

Ahh, I see the problem with the wg canister now. A shop here does a few 2.5s and 3.0s from fork lifts, and iirc, the 3.0s have a taller block, but I'm not certain. Neat old engines. Afaik, the old chevyII 4 banger is the same family, and used to be a popular dirt car engine, midgets and such. Maybe there's a better head gasket available? Better fuel, or water inj might help if it's detonating. Dave Yeah man its like the stovebolt inline 6 cylinder just minus two cylinders.

Yes! Its a turbo 400 w/ a 3 speed. 1st gear is pretty much useless. I mainly use it for pulling up to docks. You start out in 2nd gear, and shift into 3rd at about 3500-4000rpms |

That's a real clean installation. Are you going to be shocked the first time you put your foot in that boat.  I have the same wastegates and with the lightest spring it levels off at 17# with 540 ci. Run some good gas or E85. |

These boats look awsome. I might get into a boat, there is no wall to hit with a boat. Then again water can be harder then a wall.
Man, these have to be a fun ride!
