Bow rider is possible with mahogany interior features and maybe a modern "NuTeak" floor. I should be able to drag skiers and take guests out for a cruise in style with the rumble of a V8.Įpoxy sides with 2 part poly paint, mahogany transom parts with swim platform made of black locust or mahogany or teak (all in stock). In the end, it should be a modern (not done before) take on a family sport boat for the cottage. I can modify the topsides as far as deck and dash but, the weight distribution would definately have to be calculated.Ī modern 5.7L PCM motor installation is what I put into the last boat and it works superbly so, maybe that is my best shot for reliability. The last link on my post has a very interesting "flat sided" hull that looks fairly easy to build. My main goal on this forum is to get some idea where I can have plans drawn up that suit my needs. The Y block I have on hand as well as the old 327 and I am not convinced that they are the answer. Granted, I suspect you just happen to have these puppies on hand, but maybe a trade for something that doesn't spit out valve trains like melon seeds (Y block) or possibly a 4 bolt main to tolerate some serious HP and/or abuse. You don't even want my opinion on a Y block Ford, particularly in light of the Windsor and Cleveland availability. Most boats prefer a bore/stroke combination arranged for torque production, then quick throttle response and high RPM's. I'm not sure how important this will be in a boat, unless it's a drag machine.
The 3.25"/4" stroke/bore combination made it a sweet reving puppy, nearly as good as the 3"/4" 302. Lastly, a new or old 327? I love the old 327, with all of it's flaws, but I can think of a lot better bases to start with then nearly half a century old iron. The moment you start to foll around with the running surfaces and weight allocations, you'll want to have your efforts certified.

Most of them rotted away, this one is perfect with the Mercury 58A outboard that runs like a clock. These boats were handmade and they are very rare, very few exist today.
