Did you buy a new 5.7 or a salvaged? Trying to find a way to save some money on this upgrade.

It is used. 2008 w/ 7K miles runs good and came with EVERYHTING from the engine to the trans. I will be posting the whole project on my website. Gerry at Screamin Lizard has offered his assitance, which I WILL BE ACCEPTING...

Stay tuned...

A friend of mine used to run a boat called 'The Dragonlady' back in the 90's.

Should be a great project. If you don't' mind, about how much did you pay for the used engine? Are you going to use the AEV conversion kit?

Was it Ron and Sue Reith? (SP?) I know that boat. 38' Fountain. I know Ron and Sue from WAY back in Washingtion, NC race days.
Anyway, the IMCO Boat is not my boat, I just drove for that team.
