While all you P/WR's have been whoring it up all day long,this is what I been up to(among other things)and now it's done(my part anyhow)and it left!.. :good

Â Since this boat was totally out to lunch on the rigging and everything had to be moved and changed around, all holes were plugged up and started from scratch!. New 7 1/2 degree strut moved forward, motor moved up to proper location and facing forward for circles!.. This boat should take a good set and turn on a dime!.. :good

V-Drive completely rebuilt, new brackets all lined up and mounted!..

Motor all line up for solid driveline, front plate and brackets and rails. Nothing fancy just plain jane, detail or bling wasen't in the customer's budget!..

Rear plate, he will be using an open polished degreed flywheel, again just plain no detail!..

This has a drop thru strut, 2 piece strut block bolts to floor and holds strut in place. Strut support bolted to strut block and stringers, keeps the floor from flexing at the strut!..

Strut block with covers on, hides all the bolts!..

These are the driveline cover adaptors, the one on the right replaces the OEM cap on the V-Drive, the other one bolts to the butterfly and it bolts to the front of the motor with 6 inch extentions!..

New blast plate, goes on the bottom behind the strut to prevent prop wash from tearing up the bottom!..

And now"MAYBE" just maybe I can get back to my own $hit!.. :good

Thanks, we were talking about that when he picked it up, guess he's going polish and anodize it purple, he's still got a lot of work to do before that gets done though, should look badass when it's done!.. :good
