The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
Remove one from the other side so the engine maintains balance if it was a 350, and if it was just think of the fuel saving benefits because you will now have a 4.3L
Ok I got the sea foam the mmo the jb weld and engine restore non of these awesome products helped. In all seriousness will the 3.0 run 180 out enough that i can get to motor down the lake but pinging like hell. I know i should have stopped as soon as the pinging started but i didnt. I expected more power had to get my 20 yr old son to sit in the bow of the boat to get on plane. It is a 17 ft run about thought a fresh new motor should be stronger than that. Just trying to get an idea what i screwed up so i dont repeat this mishap
