    How difficult is it? Removing a glass slider and install double slider window.

    You’re on the right track. The stucco isn’t hard, just takes a little practice. Since you’re already having to patch stucco I’d avoid the retrofit style window and just use standard frame. I install windows and patch stucco back a lot. When I was starting out and didn’t have much stucco...

    26 daytona

    Yes sir, thanks matt! I put them on two weeks ago they look way better than the old red stuff. Eventually I’ll do new gauges too, not sure if I like silver carbon or black carbon backgrounds for this boat. Ditched the faded red transom hardware as well and went with polished/clear PC

    26 daytona

    Late last season I picked up my first cat, after badly wanting to get away from V bottoms. Bought in a crap market because I really wanted a 25+ cat. Options were limited last year, bought a decent boat knowing I was going to do a new interior, deck hardware and misc small upgrades. Ran the boat...

    Eliminating my money

    Yeah I’d love to swap for scx as well, it’s on the list, toward the end unless something else happens. I’ll start a thread for it, that way I’m not hijacking yours, did you get your interior cleaned up?

    Eliminating my money

    Yeah I bought mine knowing I was going to do some work to it, mostly cosmetic. I planned on swapping the motor after the first season or two with it. It’s a 496 with 3.3l whipple. I’m told has forged internals, not sure if I believe it or not. I should’ve held out one more year to buy, but it...

    25/26icc windshields

    I’m not sure where else to post this, but does anybody happen to know if eliminator 25 and 26 icc’s use the same canopies?

    Eliminating my money

    Sorry to hear about your hard times, I’ve been having some of those myself. Sold the most carefree boat I’ll probably ever own, bought a 26icc that I was wanting so badly, 4th trip grenaded the entire drive, all that was left was the lower case. Among that it has some sloppy rigging as well and...

    Eibach/Shock Therapy springs

    I put eibach stage 2 on my 2 seat xrs and it helps a ton but stage 3 would better fit my driving style. But stage 2 is a HUGE step from stop springs. I clapped out 3 sets of new stock springs before I bought eibachs. In my opinion you can get it close enough with eibachs and tuning via...

    All new 540 build

    120mph would basically be the goal for me, in my 26 daytona.. 800hp and 1.35 gears should work and put it right at 121 at 6k rpm

    All new 540 build

    That’s awesome, I see a lot of outboard stokers, it’s cool to see one with a blower motor in it

    All new 540 build

    I have a 3.3 whipple that I want to use on a new engine. Not sure who’s building said engine yet… I’d like to around 850hp turning 6k rpm
