It worked!!
took it out and started it up on 1 battery! The two battery in series system worked great for getting it started at home, seemed to wear in the engine a bit and loosened up whatever was tight!!
On the river yesterday and had a blast!! Now need to change exhaust manifold gaskets...Last edited by Choppme; 03-24-2009 at 09:13 PM. Reason: Different Pics

Can we get a pic of just the boat
Congrats!
Wow it must have been some tight azz bearing clearances?
Or whatever it was it machined itself. Change oil and look for shiny stuff.
Seriously post a bigger pic of the boat, and less shirtless guys please.1969 Horizon, 461 Olds with just about everything, Berkeley out back.

Just an update...blew the motor bout 2 weeks later...that thing just locked up and seized up on the water...no hydrolock, just plain screwed. Got a new AMC 360 rebuilt off craigslist for $200 and put it in....runs great!
Now I just noticed water squirting sideways from the jet housing....another day, another problem!
