Now a Rogers OWNER!!

Picked up this Rogers Cyclone today. Has a 327 SBC with a Stainless steel AA impeller. needs new steering cable

I want to take off the step, ladder holder, handle on transom and dash, speed sensor MPH gauge, and fill in TT holes and the holes they all are leaving. Anybody have a good place to go in the Long Beach, CA area

Congrats The 327 and the AA impy sound like a bit of a mis match....but who knows.

Nice lookin' boat! ...i would fill all the little screw holes with a combo of resin & sawdust...works great...i would polish the TT covers & leave it at that ...i would also switch the exhaust pipes around (left to right, right to left) to give the ski rope more clearance on the tow!...exhaust gets blazeing hot & could melt the rope! ...as mentioned, a AA imp might be too much, especially if the motor is stock!...see how it runs & then consider a B or C imp...just my .02 cents

bk boat repair in bellflower, ca he used to do all the cap work for rogers. his name is kenny

I'd ditch the OT's, they don't do anything 'cept make noise. I'd fill the holes you mentioned and take off the transom eyes. It didn't leave the shop with them in there. An old school Covico style 3 spoke steering wheel would look fantastic on there too. You can still get them at Moon. White, red flake, blue flake anything would look better than that wheel on there now. But that's just me.

Ditto.....a blue or red 'flaked wheel would rule......

Cool boat.....

the guy i bought it from said that the motor has 10 to 1 comp. w/ flat top pistons. cam is hyd w/ 464 lift 284 duration. which is good lift cam? am i right about that?

I was thinking about putting TT snails on it for the more classic look. didnt really like this style OT.

Anybody want a Lacarra mach 2 wood steering wheel? I really like the look of the older covico wheels
