and that paint job too....it looks like it could be candy and the stripes are buried under a lot of clear coat.... i am a body and paint guy so that stuff gets all my respect
I might be the only person to ever drive that beast besides mel when he owned it. One of the coolest things I ever did. Thanks again Mel for trusting me and teaching me a whole lot also. Mel is the master tuner also. The man.
Wonderful boat. The motor looks and sounds great. Would like to see more hull though. 24v system makes a world of difference. Whoever built this machine is an artist!
My dad raced a taf when I was a kid back in the 80s... But I have to say this is one of the nicest boats I've ever seen. I'm curious as to what you got for it when you sold it or why you sold it. She's absolutely gorgeous
Very cool engine. You need to hook up with Turbine Marine !!!!! You have the brains to make a nice world record breaking boat. Just a thought. Maybe a piston engine is better for what you are doing. Take Care
Curtis Huntley Plumbing!? I'm a drag boat fan for sure and I live in Central Point. I realize this clip is two years old but if you still have the boat, I would sure love to go for a ride. I'll pay ya or trade you for an airplane ride!
+sweetvell70 i can imagine. i can dream. would love to have a classic car again. i can just imagine standing behind that boat....ahhh the sound and of course the smell lol
Not a Jackson gear drive and it's not the rotors, either. It's air being pushed out of the grooves in the drive pulleys by the toothed Gilmer belt, giving that pronounced whistling effect.
***** What I am saying is that the engine runs the blower, not the other way around. This is caused by a rich/lean cycle at idle. As the motor leans out the RPM's increase and richen up the motor, when the motor richens the RPM's decrease and the motor leans out again. This continual cycle is known as "blower surge".
Terry Bentley Yes, if I slap a blower on my boat it will automatically surge. Survey says... XXX. The setup of the motor and injection type (carbs, injection, etc.) causes the idle up/down not the blower. I can post motors of loud gear drives and if you put on a blindfold, you will think that it has a blower.
hi , waht about the gear shift when you put car engine in boat , do you use the original gear box or you have to buy another one , and how do you control in gear shifting ? please
I don't know but I am very addicted to these engines and the sounds they make.
It's even more fun driving them. Thanks for the comment.

A Civic only wishes it sound that nice
Very cool engine. You need to hook up with Turbine Marine !!!!! You have the brains to make a nice world record breaking boat. Just a thought. Maybe a piston engine is better for what you are doing.
Take Care

It's the rotors in the Super charger meshing with rpms. No gear drive.
+sweetvell70 well ill pretend its that amazing sound of that pete jackson gear drive
+David Brockman they are sweet. I have one in my chevelle. Much cheaper than a blower hehe
+sweetvell70 i can imagine. i can dream. would love to have a classic car again. i can just imagine standing behind that boat....ahhh the sound and of course the smell lol

Brea Brendan so you just debunked your first comment as 'cam surge' which ive never heard of.... An engine doesn't surge like this without a blower

hi , waht about the gear shift when you put car engine in boat , do you use the original gear box or you have to buy another one , and how do you control in gear shifting ? please
Damn, I gotta wipe screen off. oops
Dose it idle like that because of the injection?
