    1977 Hallett Mini Day Cruiser

    Decided yesterday was a good day to spend some time designing a front motor plate on Solidworks for my rail kit I'm building. I cut this one out of steel on my CNC Plasma but still decided to make a few changes afterwords. It's got an integrated alternator mount and adjuster, coil mount, fuel...

    Turbo sizing for Twin Turbo 514ci BBF

    What EFI setups did u use and what was the cost for the system, definitely an option I need to look at if that's what it's gonna take to make it run right. The last thing I want is to spend all this money on something that runs like crap or blows up. I work too hard for my money to flush it down...

    Turbo sizing for Twin Turbo 514ci BBF

    John from C&J is a family friend so he knows my setup and has been helping me along the way with the build and can specs he wanted. I'm not opposed to any ideas really but I definitely wanted to pick some brains before I jumped into anything. The motor is going in my Hallett Mini Day Cruiser and...

    Turbo sizing for Twin Turbo 514ci BBF

    Ive been told that sizing a turbo for a boat vs.a car is a totally different animal, however I'm not sure because I don't have a ton of knowledge with this stuff. I tried turbonetics thinking they might have a little more knowledge in this department as I have seen multiple setups with their...

    Turbo sizing for Twin Turbo 514ci BBF

    I appreciate your input, but I am really trying to stick with a carburetor for multiple different reasons. There's gotta be people that have had success with running a draw through carb'D TT BBF. I've talked to John from C&J Engineering and he seems to think he can build me a proper carb that...

    Turbo sizing for Twin Turbo 514ci BBF

    I just finished building a 514ci BBF 8.3:1 CR. I have an old PFM setup and have everything except the turbos. I was looking to run modern turbos with wastegates. I called turbonetics and they said the don't make turbos the size I need for a draw through system (carbon seals), which I thought was...

    1977 Hallett Mini Day Cruiser

    Thanks for the kind words, I wanted to update the boat but not take away the 70's nostalgia. As far as the motor situation is concerned... Well I guess u can say it wasn't fast enough lol.

    1977 Hallett Mini Day Cruiser

    That's what the plan is but that hatch will need to be modified to keep everything under there. I wish this hull was just a little deeper!

    1977 Hallett Mini Day Cruiser

    And of course I don't know how to leave any thing alone so I decided that I needed to build a twin turbo 514ci BBF since I went all last season on a fresh build with zero issues. Everyone tells me I'm dumb for building a Ford but I'm a Ford guy and everyone builds Chevys. Well here's what I'm...

    I bought this boat in April of 2015 and have done tons of work to it and it just doesn't end. I've met a ton of cool people along the way and have learned a lot. Here are some pics of when I first got it.

    Need to rebuild or replace two Ray Jays 301 E- Who or what would you recommend

    I don't mean to steel the thread but I have the exact same motor and I'm looking at getting a brand new set of turbonetics turbos. Do you mind sharing the specs of your turbos so I can get them ordered? I appreciate the help! Gary
