    Ballast Resistor or not?

    You should have 12 volts only when cranking. The ~9 volts is so you do not burn the points up when running. You have a resistance wire in your engine harness vs a ballast resistor

    Stringer positions and design -stejcraft

    The center stringer is short to have a garboard plug The bulkhead may be fine with enough tabbing. However I am not a naval architect. How this is the hull at the keel? You have a lot of items in the boat to remove prior to going farther. Pull all the interior bits. I highly recommend...

    Primary Input Shaft

    Primary Input Shaft

    I'd you rebuilt the PDS correctly, you can put well over double the power your 5.7 is putting out I now have a big block in front of my 1988 DP290 (technically a DPA1) The weak link is the input shaft end in the gearbox in the input gear. NOT the 1-5/32 inch diameter 26 spline version plugged...

But you are...
