V8 seems a bit of overkill in a toon, no?Yes Sir ! I have the complete wiring, throttle/ steering and all wires down to the fuse and horn. Lol
I appreciate your input. My local boat shop was telling me it’s not the same cutout on the transom.
And all stringer's and transom are solid. It actually a 1988 Playcraft 24’ hard top pontoon. So plenty of room
It’s all in nice condition, even the original seats. I had a 22’ Wellcraft. I had a semi built 5.7 built probably 340 to 390 HP.
That's an OMC Cobra, and if the cutout isn't the same, it's VERY close. All you might need to do is drill a coupe of 11mm holes at the top of the cutout.
Some have 454's and 502's in them
It’s already 30 MPH, after we make and install stakes and motor it should be a 45 mph minimum!!
I think you're being a bit optimistic. If it's making 26knots with the V6, I think you'll only make about 5 or 6 knots more with a V8. Power vs speed increase is NOT linear, it follows the rule of squares. ie, doubling the power does not double the speed, it'll only increase it by about 15% to 20%.
Okay, will sends pics later….
Just found this?? Maybe the opening is not the same???
That's for the old BMW/Volvo drives. You have an OMC Cobra (I've looked at the photo).
