Here are a few photo of a new project i am taking on. It is a 1949 Vintage Champion Hydroplane with a Flathead Ford V8-60. I hope to get some information in the engine when i start to rebuild.

Welcome to the HAMB! Cris should be along soon he is up your way with some racing boats too. I remember seeing a V8-60 boat motor years ago with the angled intake and all. The Eddie Myer heads are a nice item to have. Start a thread on the Main Board, should cause some interesting replies. That hull looks like a project. good luck with it!
