YEs it is the only one. The step is a copy off the original single step Top Gun. Works very good at getting it up on plane quick and Mid Range, The rest of how it is done is a secret :D

Had a great time the last 2 months. Hope to talk to you soon.

Currently 14 hour on them 5 lbs. boost, just breaking in. 9.2 to 1 Comp. Boat is running 88MPH. Once we finish jetting and set the timing up a little more we are expecting a couple more MPH.

Your old Sonic was more like a rocket than a boat. That was one impressive boat.

As we have discussed earlier, need the Compression for Low End Torque and HP for the big boats as long as the drives can hold it. On the non "old Plow" type, Reverse dome and bigger boost.

Works good so far !!:D

Now I just have to not play pulley swap ! That way they will run for a while ! :D
