    Bass boat cap pull?

    Yes, mine where. There is a brass or aluminum tube which goes clear thru. Need a special flaring tool to install new one (I bought the tool ). Also the core bond is between splash well and transom

    How much should extra weight slow me down?

    Don't remember which 4.3 you installed or boat for that matter, but not a much HP difference between the two motors. Torque should be a little better. When I was running heavy and/or pulling skiers, would reduce the prop pitch. Came out of the whole easier and would over rev at WOT, but I...

    Wood cost

    Time for a ‘new’ boat?

    Doesn't look like you will need a dually I would pull it with my 2500. Even at 11K dry I could pull it. Or have your own trailer and no longer need to have it blocked, just hauled
