Re: DON'T MISS THE 5 THREADS..... ON TOP SPEED.
Nice tid bit Bryan! I remember Gale Banks from my boating days in the 80's and 90's....his stuff was the last word in turbo go fast stuff for your toy. I used to dream about his turbo kits.
 One of my buds had a 42 Fountain & had wanted to put GB kits on his tripple 502's....till he priced it out! MerCruiser said  , warranty gets 86'ed & they said he'd puke the Bravo drives to boot.He makes some nice stuff. Wonder what he'd do with a sound LT5?

Re: DON'T MISS THE 5 THREADS..... ON TOP SPEED.
A guy over on CV actually is friends with Mr Banks and made a nice post there about his friendship! Funny you would mention a Fountain 42. my best friend owns one and has big 871 blowers on it. He does go through a Bravo every now and then... but a small price to pay for the hp gains, he is putting chillers on soon to add even more hp! here is my tribute page link to his "toys of speed" and my best friend and mechanic...big Mike...He is a 98 vert owner too! http://www.cardomain.com/ride/390224/2 click on to go there....

Re: DON'T MISS THE 5 THREADS..... ON TOP SPEED.
Bryan that must get up & boogie! I know box stock trip 502's had a factory top around 84 mph in a 42 lightening. That was a very nicely done boat, Reggie finally got the rest of the package looking good enough so the wife would like the boat. The older 10 meter boats were a bit on the uncivilized side in the creature comfort area! I think with chillers you guys will get the Dense A/F charge! There is a guy that has a magnachargered C5 and he uses NOX in his intercooler, neat plumbing job , looks wild and I guess it must work.
Ahhh, boys & their toys.
