Lets see if the OP even comes back to comment and thank us for our attention to detail first.
I suspect it might just be a drive-by anyway.

Now that another style of "Liberator" has shown up, he may need some time to decide which direction he would like to go.

Well that kind of liberator is not exactly what I had in mind... haha. What are other good sites besides craigslist? I'd really like to find a nice 241 with a merc

Wow! Twin 460 king cobra's. I had 1 460 king cobra and the fuel tank sucked my wallet out of my pocket ever time out. I don't think that tool box has tools in it. It's full of cash for fuel. :lol:



That all just depends on how it is setup. We have our Twin 460's out to Twin 472's with 10.25 to 1 pistons and I reworked the carbs and distrib's. We went out twice for over 6 hours and 3 hours of out of water muff's to break in and tune. I filled it back up and it took 31 gallons.
Now I did not ride around WFO the whole time, but we cruised at least a couple of hours worth of 65 plus with it. Pulled tubes for another 3 hours and the rest was either slow cruising on plane or just moving along at about 8 mph.

I was expecting to put at least 60 to 75 in it, but got a nice surprise instead.
Plenty of power to leave most boats behind too.
As far as a tool box goes, I did have mine with me, but not really needed if you put them together right and don't throttle slam them all the time. Your car does not like it, your boat is no different.
