    Sound was behind the engine, either bell housing or upper drive.

    From the drive, either bell housing or the upper. Engine running fine, just under a load from something maybe sporadically binding.

    Drivetrain

    OK, so cruising down the lake at about 4,000 rpm when I hear a bang and then as I throttled down hearing a sound like beating a pan with a metal rod. Once I determined that I could proceed at idle...

    "Trailer" Tires

    OK, yes ST tires are much preferred to regular car tires etc. but I don't use them due to their proneness to overheat and explode. I run Michelin E rated light truck tires on all of my trailers...

    Nope

    Nope, for what you want to do there are a lot of other options out there. I love my C22 but it is a "go fast" boat, not really a family, sandbar, cruiser.

    Tips

    Did you get my email and photos? In the video with the engine running you might notice that you do not hear the internal flappers, but occasionally you might at idle. Absolutely not a problem...

    Cavitates

    I tried a labbed 23 on my '88 22C and it did the same, too much throttle out of the hole and it just spun, regardless of trim. 26P Mirage+ was a much better all around prop. Now running a four...
  10. Distributor Advance?

    Could definitely be the timing, so as suggested above check that first as it can bog you down in a hurry :bonk:
  11. Listen

    From my time on this site...LISTEN to what MOP, BUZ, and FIXX say. Lots of expertise/knowledge. Props, props, from what I have read and actually experienced, ya just gotta to get in the ballpark...
  12. Fuel Pressure Gauge

    Well there is actually a fuel pressure gauge mounted in the engine compartment of mine but I haven't ever even looked to see what it measures. I do have an electric fuel pump though, on initial...
  13. "Loading Up"?

    I would think that if it is truly just "loading up" then an on the water carb adjustment is in order. I have a double pumper Sea Demon 830 also and am in process of working out of the loading up...

    BBC RPM's

    To me this is an interesting question...what is the top end recco on a BBC? My tech says that the BBC, unlike a SB, is really not made for running wide open for extended periods, no matter how the...

    Out of the Water!

    Hehehehe, just seeing that picture of the boat flying through the air reminded me of how I blew the previous engine in my 22C .... new 482 stroker has a rev limiter so that it doesn't over rev when...
  17. Tips

    I run straight 10" Hardin's with internal flappers on my 22C. New from Eddie's a set was less than $200 and you can indeed find lots of used stuff around.

    New Engine

    That looks similar to the last engine that I had in my 22C, Sea Demon carb, roller rockers, etc. that was also dyno'd at 490 hp. Stock or similar exhausts work just fine. As fixx can tell you from...

    Lake Tillery NC

    Mid 80's a couple of days last week and the 22C went up the lake to check out the new motor. Nice 2500-3000 rpm run. New motor ran like a champ, so all was good. An early start on spring is not a...

  23. Hardin's

    fixx: Actually I only ran the Hardin's with the inserts for about an hour before I took them out...hehehe, I LIKE the unmuffled sound and there are no restrictions on my lake. Inserts were not in...
  24. Hardin's

    Totally agree, I run 10" Hardin's with internal flappers and removable baffles on my 22C. However if you need "quiet", even with the baffles this is not what you want. The Hardin's look and sound...
