I Ordered it new and dumped $ into it like I had a printing press. I have hung on due to the blood sweat and tears but It needs a home where it will get used.

Thanks. It performs great too, I just learned I can only really manage to be a one boat man.

I turned it into a project beyond belief. Lesson learned.

It was brought up in another thread......you do not need Ford Engines to power the boat. I still have the Gil Chev motormounts that came with the boat.

The Headers may work on a Chev, My Ford Heads have BBC exhaust patterns. A big block Ford has the same dimensions as a tall deck chev with Big Chief heads.

I am just not sure how the exhaust flange angle differs. The headers in the pictures have 5 hours on them as well.

They have water coming in at the very end of the tail through a 1/8th inch weep hole.

I have an extremely good relationship with Stellings so I may be able to make mods easily, They would be available if a boat buyer did not want them first.

Only thing I changed are the motor mounts. A chev will drop right in.:)

Nothing is Ford specific in the boat other than that mount. The Factory Gil mount comes with. :USA:

That has to be the best looking 32 I've ever seen. If I see anyone on the other site looking for a 32 I'll send them your way.

Beautiful boat.

Thank you and I Appreciate it :USA: Obviously, we have a good track record working together too, too bad those 525s are not sitting around right now :sifone:

Honestly, I think this is perfect for 496HOs or equivalent power. I over did it with the big motors. That is why I moved them into the Gladiator.
