Two years previous we converted this 16' Daytona V bottom from an outboard to do R&D on an Aggressor Junior drive with 4 cylinder the project was a huge success that proofed out boat the attributes of the drive and that a 4 cylinder jet drive package could successfully power a small runabout , moving forward were pulling the junior drive and building a new Berkeley full size jet with newly developed JBP parts and components , currently this project will receive a 350 SBC but were scouting for an LS to ultimately power this little Rocket

Stripped and moving forward , found a buyer with small Daytona Pickle (ex whacker) to take the Junior drive for his project , he's talking about a Subaru mill or a Wankle and sold the 4 banger to a guy with a "winter kill" cracked block in the northwest in 48 hrs on fleabay... what a country :D ...

Small block should be great in that little boat. Would you cut the impeller down much?

Lots going on this little Hot Rod Ron trying to keep a "budget" of sorts so we went to the Impeller core box and found a decent piece to cut to a standard B to begin
