Hello my name is Greg. I live in Brazil Indiana and take my boat out to Raccoon lake in Rockville, IN. I stumbled across this forum by Google. I was looking for some ways to hop up my 72 Glastron Carlson CV 21. It has a 455 Olds with a 650 Holley on a Holley street dominator intake, points ignition, and a Berkley jet drive. It wont rev any higher than 3000 RPM and tops out at about 45 Mph. (could that be regulated by the advance weights in the distributor?) I know that 455 can push the boat faster than that. The boat looks to be all original except for a few things on the engine. When I got it, it had a cracked intake and the valve covers leaked pretty bad so I swapped them out and rebuilt the carb. Here are some pics of it.
