We will be down there Thurs and Sun. I will look for you guys at the Cig display. Anywhere specific you guys might be?

Thanks for the info and the pics. I wonder why they did not add the slots for the LWP so you would not have to drill the hole. With you drilling the holes in the side of the case, My concern would be once the drives are far enuff out of the water, you may not pick up any more water flow, but...

Thunderstruck, Thanks for the info. I also have the LWP and a very high X-Dimension. I was also looking at putting the Imco Standard Lowers on if I can find a good price. I am just looking for the caseings if you happen to know anyone that has a pair. I would like to break the 100 mph mark this...

We will be down there Feb 12-16. Hope to meet up with some of you there.

RM Builder, Thank you for the clarification regarding the spring issues. I think alot of people ( my self included ) my have thought that this was a issue will all the Blue motors. Glad to see you over here, you bring alot of knowledge that everyone can benefit from.

AWESOME looking boat Quint. Looks very clean in the pics. Hope you can make it up to the Great Lakes this year or maybe I can make it down ther. Would love to see the boat in person.:party::party::party:

Vette, You are correct that the cam is a flat tappet and that you should not have any problems with the upper end, But the question that I have, is that we do not know how the previous owner drove or maintained the boat. I do know that when we changed over mine to a Hyd Roller cam, we measured...

Bob, Im not trying to step over your knowledge on this. The reason for my statement is because when I bought my boat, The motors only had 225 hrs on them. At that time they were popping every now and then an did not idle real well. When we pulled the valve springs, Some were only showing 80 lbs...

It is me. Glad to hear that you got the boat. I have not heard from you in awhile and was going to email you to see what was going on. As with all the Merc " Blue " motors, Valve springs should be replaced between 200-250 hrs. This also depends on how the motors were run. If they were babied...

There was a 32 AT with them for sale about 4-5 years back that I would have loved to grabbed. Griff, Was this the boat that was out of OH. That is where I bought mine. This is the only 32 AT ever built with the 540 Bulldog option.

Thanks Steve, I will let you know when it gets alittle closer. I think that was the boat I saw.

Dan, Glad to hear that you are doing well. Boat is running great. Just some light work on the motors and rebuild a drive that I blew on my last run. I may know of a few boats you may be interested in. I will give you a call this weekend. Most likely on Sun.

Thanks for the info. Might be able to make it this year. That is our normal 2 week shutdown. Is this where they do the annual AT run every year? Did yzbert get his boat last year? I saw my first 37 going down the highway up here and was wondering who's it was.

Thank You. I am quite happy with the way they turned out. Love the looks and paint job on your boat. Would really like to see it in person one day.:)

Rick, Right now i am seeing around 93mph, But that is running B1 30's at 6000. Was able to try a set of 32's last fall, but popped at drive at 3800rpm. My slip numbers are real high ( 18% ) with the 30's. I would like to get it down to about 12-13% which should put me around 102-103mph. Dont...
