Quad Turbos, blowing into a Roots blower!
Check this out, I have seen this before, but he had twin turbos and a tunnel ram instead of the blower. He said the turbos did not spool up well enough to launch the V-drive boat. He is still experimenting but it does actually run and work. Motor is a 360 inch SBC. Then take a look at what he pulls it with!DSCN1080.jpgDSCN1081.jpgDSCN1082.jpgDSCN1083.jpgDSCN1084.jpgLast edited by Stu Cool; 06-03-2012 at 03:04 PM.
Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

Awesome boat and tow rig but absolutely no good for fishing as no where to put the rods or bait tanks. The Hudson must be rare ?I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

When you meet the guy who has it, he does not seem like one of those folks that has tons of money. He is definitely an engineering type though. Seems like he does most of the work himself and is quite meticulous.Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

Is that what they call a conversation starter?Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

For the cost of gas, I'm betting the owner wished it did. LOL Originally Posted by 1gary
