Both of us have worked in the same trade for over 35 years. He was smart enough to retire with a nice house on the river.

Since this is the first 255 speedster with an I/O Eliminator is doing a mock up for an extended engine hatch.

Nice Boat

^^What he said^^

I think you are really going to like this package. Very interested to see what Jake and the crew does with the hatch styling on this one.

I highly recommend Gibson mufflers with this package; takes the sharpness out but still has the big block rumble, and they don't rob power. If you do the transom mufflers they stay in place and give the boys an easy hookup with factory tailpipes. The external ones are OK too, but I'd safety wire them so if they fall off over time you don't lose them.

What’s the boat priced at

 

[02HoWaRd26]

Beautiful..... have them ship those headers off for the gloss black touch
Something about those 565’s i just think they are so damn sexy.
