How many of you run BBF 460\429 in your jet boats?

www.hi-techperformance.com (http://www.hi-techperformance.com) can set you up with a good pump as your jacuzzy is doing all it can do ..You can get it to do about 65 but that is it. With a lot of work !

I've got a stock 460 Ford Berkeley Pack-U-Jet set-up in my 1980 Python Mini-Offshore. On 93 octane pump gas I run 61 MPH at 4900 RPM.

I am running a 460 DIVE block w/ DOVE heads. Lunati cam for jet boats. Crane roller rockers, I ground the emissions "humps" out of the exhaust port. Edelbrock RPM Performer, 750 Holley(mechanical, dual feed, double pump, out of the box, removed ckoke butterfly), blocked off heat risers in the heads, 2" spacer(top half 4 holes, bottom half dual plane), Mallory electronic w/ high Fire 4c box, Holley elec. pump because Lunati didn`t grind the lobe for mechanical pump. Edelbrock double roller.

Edelbrock double roller. Always ran Chevy motors till now. After 34 years on this rock I now know 1 thing is for certain. I`ll never buy a Chevy again. I enjoy not spending all my free time under the hood or bondoing rust. All my Chevy vehicles I was fighting the war on rust and losing. Ford makes a better vehicle and motor/drive train. In my experienced opinion anyway. And oh yeah, I was a line tech for GM for 5 years,ASE certified, not a master mechanic(lack AC), but none the less experienced.
