[420HOA]

This work?

I'm thinkin this one :thumbup:

 

[thetub]

Odyssey....... I've been using these for years in offroad racing.... Never had a failure.... I've broke frames, battery mounts, engine mounts, shocks, rims, Trailing arms, skid plates, sheared coils off, fuel pumps all at 10,000 RPMs and I still have the same battery.... It's a dry cell battery with the plates packed tightly.... You can mount them upside down if you want.... I will show you the specs later Glenn xoxoxo

just picked one up. hope it holds up. also put inch of rubber underneath.

Got the tanks in the steering and the plate set up finished on Friday.
Motor and trans in on Saturday. Now gotta build the battery box and start wiring it up :thumbsup

Lookin good Glenn! Did you move the motor forward? Maybe it just looks that way from the angle of the shot. Here's a pic with the old motor

Didn't let any grass grow under your feet on this build!! Nice job.

 

[BMABITY]

Total Power battery, good choice, you will not be disappointed. Hopefully you shake all the gremlins quick on your test runs! Nice build! :thumbsup

 

[BigSteve]

Looking good !!!

Very nice job and one hell of a lot of work

Your the man !!!

Finish it and get some seat time and tuning :thumbup:

 

[rivergames]

You guys never changed the strut angle?

 

[420HOA]

You guys never changed the strut angle?

:eek Why change a proven strut angle ?
This boat has more racing miles than any other Schiada built (according to Lee) It was Howard Haiges (dont knock on the spelling) old race boat and has seen the Catalina finish line multiple times. External rudder with cable steering and proven performance, why change a good thing ?
Couple of small leaks to deal with today but she fired right up :thumbsup

If you say so

The location and angle change on my 20' made a huge difference. feels like she carries the nose pretty damn well right now. :thumbsup

Oh! she'll carry the nose :thumbsup
Got 4 different props to try, and three different programs, we'll find the Sweet Spot :thumbsup

[YoPengo]

Good for you guys. Good luck with the test and tune. :thumbup:

 

[420HOA]

I think this boat can carry the nose. Glenn has more power in it now than when I had it.

used to ski race behind your boat "back in the day" when the late howard HAIG owned it.......lots of good times

also worked on the EFI with it when Billy worked on it. had lost of trouble with that intake with the injectors up high like that and poor angle entry into the port. if it still has the rochester 96lb injectors, thise things atomize very poorly and wet the port badly. lots of parts throttle driveability issues. newer style injectors help a TON.

Ran the injectors on an injector dyno at a friends race shop, rebuilt them all and they ran flawless on the dyno. I agree the ideal placement would be lower but it's to late to change now, I don't think it will be a problem but that's why we're testing all systems in river conditions :thumbup:

 

[420HOA]

DONE / DETAILED / Ready to test :thumbsup
BIG :thumbsup to Joe, Matt and Rick for all the hard work :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

See ya out there Marc

Great weekend, got a lot figured out. Whole different animal with external rudder, very light layup so we will be adding more down pedal. Out of gear at 5500 RPM so we'll be adding gear. Reasonably good fuel mileage but will be adding some lumbar and side supports to the seat. Got to windy on Sunday to run, we'll be back in two weeks :thumbsup
Parker can't wait till he can drive it :thumbsup

By "out of gear" do you mean out of rpms? What gear and prop are you running now?

 

[420HOA]

By "out of gear" do you mean out of rpms? What gear and prop are you running now?

We were running a Braksma 11.5 x 15 2 blade at 5500 -6000 rpm 7 lbs boost at 1/2 throttle at 100 - 103 mph, more throttle went no faster just got on the rev limiter at 6000. It also wicked the turbos up so fast the boat litteraly leaps out of the water from 75 - 90 mph.
I think somewhere around 57-63 gears should drop my rpm's and apply the power a little more manageable thru the power band.

The boat looks great!!! Congratulations on a very nicely done project. Good luck in the Enduro...
