Josh has been "puttering" with little mechanical things since he could walk.  He fell in love with this 16' plus unidentified hull last year.  If you know the history of this hull please contact JPB.  This boat was an experiment for the folks at Aggressor, used in R & D for their junior pump program with small horse power.  Josh built a full grown custom pump and 450 HP SBC with Dart Pro 1 heads,  Edelbrock tunnel ram, matched Holley 600's, Mallory and MSD, Summit roller rockers, and Comp Cams "short track" flat tappet cam.  The SBC was replaced this summer by a 550 HP 351 Windsor with 408 CID, Scat 9000 lower end, Edelbrock Victor Junior aluminum heads, topped with a Victor Junior manifold and a Holley 950 HP series carburetor.   The boat runs  73.1  MPH on GPS/radar.  After much pump finessing, he's running a Berkeley A impeller an Aggressor 9 vane bowl and a race modified Place Diverter,    The approximate 1000 lb. package leaves so hard your eye balls want to change sockets (goggles required).
