Just picked up a 78 19 Daytona jet, going with a twin turbo LS(been racing a Turbo LS drag car for years). Have a couple of questions, what oil pan are you using ? the pump is set way back so nothing under engine, also the BB in this was way forward(to me) 30.5" transom to rear plate, 14" driveshaft. Would like to move engine back to make back seat somewhat useable. Any advice would be welcomed, thanks Rob
Listen to Gregg. He will help you keep your hair dry. There is a reason they run motors forward in a fast Daytona. That motor is light and if makes as much steam as the potential it has, you should have a rocket.
Ok, I'll bite...hull needs fixing ? not looking for anything performance wise, just a mess around creek boat. Yes we are going to run megasquirt for the EFI(we run it on a no-prep car my son drives) so yes will have data. Currant plans are to keep boost low @10-12 that should put us @700-750hp
Ok, getting some things done, mocked up engine with driveshaft that came with boat, seems like can make it work with backseat. Engine being done now, going to lift off and redo trailer before engine and boat goes back together
