: That is too bad, all these old boats are great to see. The twins on the 15 should have been a quick ride. If you find any more pics of the Chrysler power post them.:thumbsup:

Yea Mark...that's my old UI tunnel...I sure loved driving that boat...was a lot of fun. I'm restoring an old Hustler 16' Victor that I'm going to install a Suzuki 140 on...will prolly take me a couple of years to finish :(
pics to post #275 , Chucks 140 machined for the stacker.
Tillotson pumpers, not bigger than TC's. I believe some HL's are small 7/8, these are HR's or HD's I think. I will double check. 1 9 /32 or 1 1/2 , don't think they are 1.6" .
Get to together it should turn over 10K & live = shouldn't it?
That babys going to be loud! :)
A little different sound than a 150 stacker , 3.375 x 2.876, 103ci for 140hp with four carbs vs 3.3125 x 2.80, 96 ci for the 150hp . 7200/7500 if all is well.
Don't really know how long things would stay together at 10k. Bill has mentioned having turned it past his safe level but how fast and long ? That build was completed and ran but he didn't get enough time on it and something small, ign I think had him on three. Didn't have time to break it in fully but it ran strong. The goal is 100+ , Bills in the low/mid 90s @ 7200/7500. Like to see them run.
A HydroVee 151 closed bow.http://www.fiberglassics.com/images/...019.04.24.jpeg
I see somebody did some bottom work. Don't know if they were built with a pad but that one has one. Strakes have been worked too.
Oh yes, with only one exception the open bow 154 all HydroVee's from 14 to full size 24 cruisers had the pad and strakes.
4 carbs seemed to work better with horizontal reeds. Built a few this way using 2 of the 3 cylinder front halfs. Rods are too short and light to run 10k.
