I sold my ownership two years ago and have been running Chiefs ever since. Tommy has built the most dependable motors I have ever owned. The set we ran this week had over 60 hrs on them...my other set had 144 hrs before I took them out for a rebuild and were still running with no issues.Tommy has done an unbelievable job of making HP on 93 octane and making it live for long periods of time with 18 degree heads:driving:

Right on brother. Glad to see you got things ironed out. Seemed like you were having a string of bad luck for a while there.

See you in havasu.
 
Wow. :eek: Congrats, Bill. You are da man. :driving:

Is that a beautiful boat, or WHAT???

Thanks all..I'm just glad we finally got to prove that the boat is on pump gas and quite all of the naysayers.. Jt came in a drained the fuel tanks and inspected the boat to make sure it had NO alky hooked up. Once, the boat had all the fuel drained I had JT fill it with 93 octane at the shell station. We hammered the boat for a couple of hours messing around.the boat accelerated from 60 to 180 in 34 sec. This should finally set the record straight.:sifone:

Great job Bill...Tommy's motors have a hell of a reputation....it also says a lot for Skater....So what's next.. you throttling or driving.:cool:
 
Good for you Bill.

Talked to John Tomlinson about that earlier this week and he mentioned Bill emptied the boat of fuel in his shop and they went to the Shell station and filled with 93 then ran 188...

Very Impressive, congrats Bill.

Obviously Bill has owned some of the greatest boats on the planet, could this one be THE best boat ever made? The perfect boat? Dare I even say it is a pleasure boat at that?

I mean if one were to gun for the top dog, PP would be it in my mind, right?
