John Your boat really turned out Georgeous! I just hope Mine turns out half as nice......Hal
Oh please, Hal yours is gonna be over the top. I've been pretty quiet here as I've been thrashing to get ready for the big Labor Day bash east of the mountains.
So far, plumbing and wiring is similar to stuffing 30 lbs of sh!t in a 5 lbs sack. mount one thing, in the way of something else, move that, now this doesnt line up......grrrrrrrr

Thanks Kona. It's getting really close. Hope to fire it this coming week after I go over everything again and check connections.
Here's the latest. I'm modifiying the starter and alternator wires cuz I can't stand how they look but otherwise this thing is done on the wiring and plumbing.
I have two bilge pumps in there that were a royal pain to fit in there behind the pump plate. One is a 1000gph on a mercury float switch wired hard to the battery (with a inline fuse) and the other is a 1200gph controlled by a switch on the dash.
I drilled and tapped a number of holes in the rear motorplate the provided a nice mounting point for the cushion clamps holding my boost pressure line and wires coming from the dizzy, coil and temp sender.

Thanks Austin. Ended up drop kicking the wire from the Alt to the starter and ran multiple heatshrink over it and then passed it through an old nitrous line I had after I sanded the braids back.
Looks much better in my dumbass opinion.......
