    Here are some old pics that I thought you guys might enjoy. These pics are from the 1930s when my grandfather raced boats.

    72hallett,
    very cool. Looks like a lot going on with your grandpa's engine, dual spark plugs etc. Do you know if that was called a '4-60', built by Evinrude? I love this old stuff. Got any more?
    One of my favorite pictures is of this early dyno set-up.
