New Engine for 24

[courtholl]

Old 502 ended up with a cracked block. Here is the new engine, 496 stroker. basically complete and will pick up in March. Will go in an 89, 24 pantera. Can't wait. have been out of the water for two summers fighting with the people and insurance company that screwed up my 502. Finally got money and here is the end result.

Very Nice !

The interior is the original red vinyl interior. Boat handle great with the 502, so anticipate in is going to be that much better with the new engine. Did about 72-73 with the 502 and still had more to pull from the engine (had a small intake). I am guessing we should approach 80 mph.

if u ever think of upgrading, id be interested.


right now im looking for a 28...but if cant find one w/ the right price tag, would consider a 24

[Dude! Sweet!]

Really sharp looking ride. I'm very fond of the red/white combo!

Hey Ernie, looking forward to some time on the lakes this summer. There is another 24 Pantera on LKN now. It is a little older than mine. Not sure if you have bumped into him at all. We definitely need to meet up on the lake. Keep in touch. I am hoping to get an early start in the spring. Hope you have a great new year.

I do know that you guys now have a second Pantera up on Lake Norman - I have not seen it in person, but did see some pictures from the Toys for Tots Run - It looked real nice...

I also look forward to hooking up with you guys this spring...

Happy New Year...
