I though some of you guys want to see this USA Made Land Yatch (build in Texas). Is my mum in law, had it since new. Has a LT1 5.7L Multiport Fuel Injection and some that perhaps nobody seen it in the Holden world as far I know. Is an interesting piece, a distributor called "Optispark", you guys can search on it. I am working on it because it has 117,000 miles and a weird hesitation at light loads at about 63 MPH/80 KPH. The engine seems to have a slight miss, very anoying.
Anyway, here are some pics of this boat.
Check the engine bay. That is a LT1 5.7 V8 and how much room has between the engine and the fans.
You see the crank pulley? On top is the water pump, behind that, the dreaded Optispark. I hope is fine because is a bitch to get to it and a very expensive timing device. Not sure, but I think this is a milder version of the Corvette engine, this big boat can move. I bet, a nice 427 Big Block or a ProCharger with an Intercooler will fit nicely.
