Here's out new boat! In perfect condition. The boat runs like a champ and is very fast! Only downside.... it's thirsty with the 351 ford 5.8 v8

Here's some pics

Congrats Twan - You sure do love your Rages! I think you will have much better luck with that 18 - I hear they run great with the 351 in it - yes a bit thirsty but you shouldn't want for power. Cool

Good luck with your new ride! Smile

NICE ! I probably should'nt tell you this but, "IT'S MY JOB", if you switch out the heads on a Ford 351 to the bigger "AUSSIE" heads, it's a complete "ANIMAL" with a much higher performance rating (An old 351 Mustang trick I've used).
