The
thrill of 80 MPH wind rushing through your hair! The motors
and drives. My goal in building these motors was for
performance without a ton of maintenance. I choose to
normally aspirate the motors. I had the motors built to
handle the pressure of a 6 lbs supercharger if you want to
put some on. It's up to you. The cubic in of the motors is
502. This is a standard Chevy block motor. All motors and
the engine area has been detailed with Deltron custom
paints. All paint work was done by SD Enterprises (432 Carmen,
Ferrysburg, MI, 49409. Owner Steve DekKinga.
616-847-8382) They specialize in painting custom Funny Car,
Nascar and Top Fuel Drag Racing. They also do normal body
work on cars, motorcycles and boats too. Everything on the
boat has been custom painted using several coats of Deltron
paint.
The
motors were built by Baker Engineering.
They
are located in Nunica, Michigan. They are a high performance
motor builder with all the tools needed to do the job right.
Complete Dyno systems, years of experience, and a warranty
to boot! As you know, not many builders do this. It was a
must with me. Jack is the owners name and feel free to
contact him if you have any questions about.
So, let's get into the details. Total hours on the motors is about 80 as of July 6th, 2001. Adjusted power for each motor
is
625 HP motors
(See
Dyno Sheets)
have
been built identically so as we detail the motors out,
please note that all of them are the same in every way. I'm
doing this from memory! I don't have all the detailed specs
but if you would like them, we can talk to Jack about them.
If you are truly interested in the boat, I will get you as
much information as possible. Check
what's been done and what I do for
maintenance.
