The boys are back at it with the new jet boat, and have had some awesome trips with it already. It keeps getting faster and faster, and they have had help from several great tuners and fabricators, but this week Cleetus is coming out to take a look at the boat, help with some new projects on it, and then go for a ride. Finnegan says they ran their fastest laps on the lake so far, but in typical Finnegan’s garage fashion it certainly wasn’t without drama. He better be careful, because the wife seriously digs her new boat and has already gotten to enjoy it on vacation. If he screws it up she will never let him live it down.
I have faith, but lets see what kind of fun and excitement they have going on this week.
Video Description:
There’s something for everyone in Episode 105 of Mike Finnegan’s Garage! The legend, Cletus McFarland dropped in to go for a ride in my wife’s 21ft Eliminator Daytona jet boat and of course, we had issues. A boat that has ran great all summer long suddenly had an intermittent issue with the crank sensor in the twin-turbo Texas Speed 427 LSX engine. We got that handled and also enlarged our charge tube, which made a massive reduction in the temperature of the air coming from the turbos. This meant the engine made way more power! In this video we show you how to pie-cut tubing and test our new parts while adding six mph to the top speed of the jet boat!
