Good ideas on tb. I知 going cable drive. 103 would need an adapter I think.
Agreed on gauges. I知 either going analog or doing a nmea2k gateway into a 2nd display like another lowrance hds7 gen 3. I really like simrad and furuno but use what you got. Analog is in the lead at moment for wallet reasons.
Imagine this for an intake: https://www.ebay.com/itm/SUPERCHARGE...EAAOSwLsRgcOA1
Macdaddyparts makes an adapter for it.
My goal is 500ish. Sharps custom has a nice intake, as does Holley. I have the tbss. I知 considering the fast Lsxrt but that supercharger would be spicy. I知 going to set it up as is and see how I like it and upgrade intake if I want more.
The seafari 25 originally maxed out with twin 351 Windsor痴 to make 500. Making it with a single Ls should be awesome. Doubt I値l get to 500 but 450+ would be nice. |
Sounds like you have a good path or plan. She will be a ripper at even 400hp. 450-500hp even better and easily attainable with the LS platform. I have always been a Gen 1 SBC guy but I do have to say the LS stuff has a much better architecture. The factory heads on them can be just as good as a mile race gen 1 SBC head. The head I am having done will flow 400+cfm but there are several factory LS heads that flow well stock or with a mild port or CNC run can produce some great numbers. If you do a supercharger do the endplate upgrade as the factory in manifold intercooler will blow the ends out or balloon. The fast LSX manifold dose really well and all of the Holly stuff works and preforms really well. A lot of Drag race guys run the Holly High ram but the Fast manifold will fit much better in a boat under the cover. Make sure you post some pictures of yours once you get moving with installing the LS. I have a seafari 25 and against better judgment have twin 200 merc efis on a bracket for mine. A lot of people say not to do a bracket on a 25 and rightfully so but I am going to give it a shot to see if I can make it work. I need to get mine going. She has sat for a few years now.
