Not that it matters or anything....... but just so you are aware, the Ilmor 7.4 is a small block.

A 7.4 liter is a small block? That would be the biggest small block ever. are you sure?

I think he might be right.

Here’s something I read on this

Yessir, it’s an LSX, which is an iron block version of the GenIV LS series small block engines. It was never an available engine in any of the regular GM product line. It is a special block made for racing applications, and can be sized in a bunch of displacements between 360-480 cubic inches.

For what it is worth..... it is a much stronger engine, that performs much better than any big block 454 ever has. The LSX is an awesome platform.

Showed my coworker who used to be a sponsored rider by MC and Malibu, he thinks it might be a sponsor boat.. if thats the case he advises to definitely not to get it, will find out for sure. Going to lake test it this weekend possibly if the rain holds off.

Who is your coworker? The launch boat was all black, but with a green interior

They had a black one with an all orange interior too. Never seen one from this generation with an all red interior in any of the promos

This the boat you're talking about? https://portland.craigslist.org/clc/...834540815.html

Taylor Shaffer. Both he and his brother used to ride for them, only his brother does now I believe. Not sure on his brothers name.

What do they mean with the 'go surf assist'?

It was aftermarket surf tabs by GSA instead of the factory GenII tabs.

I stopped by the other day and checked out the boat the OP is looking at. Seattle MC says they sold and serviced the boat. One owner, stored on a lift on lake Sammamish. It's definitely loaded and a nice boat if you like the colors. It had the "Coy wrap" shown in this thread. Needs some cosmetic work on the swimstep and rear step pads. Too much sun, probably those areas were not covered when stored. No biggie though. Interior looks to be in good shape. They just dropped the price from $89 to $85k. Has GEN2 retrofitted. It's a lot of boat for the money.

Yeah it really is. I actually cancelled the test drive as I put an offer in on a house and will know later today, but if that falls through ill be back in the market for this one. So we'll see

Ah good to know! The interior in this one is in really really good condition, almost no signs of wear at all.

Hope to not derail the thread, but do you know how much it would have cost to replace a screen out of warranty?
