I stand corrected - there are only 4 in the top .... 8 in the intake manifold....
Spent the weekend taking measurements and talking to our glass guy about new hatches and scoops - we used to "slide" the engines forward when installing them as the blower pulley was just under the deck - these engines are 3 inches taller therefore the pulley is basically getting into the deck...... so out came the saw..... this is where the owner leaves for an hour or so......
Going to build new hatches and widen/ lengthen or replace the scoops.... not sure yet ... we're also discussing some exhaust changes.....
We're going to move the forward lip up about 5 inches - these are just rough cuts so we can drop them in to make a pattern for the next hatches....
I saw the old Bud Select boat racing in St. Clair with a pair of those engines. I believe that was a 45 footer and they were running down the back straight at 170. Your little boat is going to be a lot faster......
