I read closer and listened to your comment, thus the edit...

I was curious if it was a solid roller or hydraulic roller (in reference to the valve lash / rockers being too tight)... My assumption is a solid roller if the lash adjustment made such a dramatic difference...

Andrew told me personally at LB one week ago that there is still ALOT left in the hull/set up that would make her Unbeatable......

You'd need a whole lot of gas for that. I sold it to a former Hot Boat guy from the OG days and he spent a bunch of time with it on the lower river. Don't know what happened to it after that.

Then a few years later, I picked up this 21' RC from Lonnie Fluent. Fun boat, but only had a tandem axle trailer, so I don't know if it really counted as a Schiada. I will say that running upriver was a little unnerving with the fixed v-drive running gear. It didn't draft much, but without the ability to trim anything? Yeah, there was a pucker factor. :smilies_mit_hut019:

I threw the OT's on so I could run the valves after I swapped out rockers. Couldn't get the covers off with the Gil Marine manifolds on. Freaked some of the Schiada crew out with that pic.

Yeah, this one would get after it, but we were just cruising there. It was a '76 and a heavy boat. I saw 90mph on GPS before I sold it, but that was all she had, until I listed it for sale. All for sale Schiadas run at least 100 mph. :-)

lol....Fuc... the things people will say to try to get you to come buy some thing...we did end up putting it in the water..it was taking on water bad...and it was starting to over heat , so I told him to shut it off and get it back on the trailer before it sunk..
