Another jet boat guy...nice.. Have you ever owned a jet boat before. They're incredible. I love them. Anyway...looks like you scored 1 hell of a Southwind. I prefer thru transom exhaust, but over the top is the way to go on that style boat anyway. Looks like you're gonna have 1 hell of a summer. As far as getting it home, the road trip is the only way to go. See the country, and "clear your head". Good luck

Whats up guys and gals?..I know you have seen me post this car a thousand times. Well its for sale again. We have too many projects going on and no time to enjoy, so might as well let someone else enjoy it.
It is a Factory Five MkII chassis completed in July of 03. This car has many many features. The FFR's are designed for a donor Fox body style Mustang. This Cobra was built with all new parts except for the rear end pumpkin, the fuel tank and spindles. I'll start with the color, it is 2000 Dodge Prowler Orange with gold ghost Shelby stripes. The motor is a small block 351W bored and stroked to an official number 425 cu. in. , b/c we didnt want to bore .060 needed for 427. Close enough. Eagle crank, Keith Black pistons, Comp cams with .500 lift, roller rockers and updated last year with a set of Brodix aluminum heads. Holley 670 Street Avenger. Ceramic coated headers and side exhaust. DUI distributor and DUI plug wires. The motor was estimated at a high 500 crank horsepower. Has not seen a track, or dyno. The transmission is a Tremec 3550 5 speed, with a McCleod Bell housing, clutch and a Steeda clutch quadrant. The rear is an independent unit from a 94 Lincoln MarkVIII with the stock 3.08's and an added new Auburn locker.
QA1 adustable coilvers all the way around, Flaming River rack and pinion. 4 wheel disc brakes with slotted and drilled rotors. Team III 17" Halibrand replicas wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's 245/45 front and 245/40 rear.
The interior is tan leather with Simposon 5 points, Autometer Ultralites and a Secret Audio hidden stereo. Dual chrome roll bars. I know I'm leaving alot out...Just ask me if you have questions. Interested? Reply, PM me or email me at [email protected] With all that said, asking price is $38,900...o yea and as of 4/21/07 it has 6600 miles on the clock..Thanks for looking....
On to the pictures......I have hundreds more including progress pics as well, let me know if you want more
THis is before the aluminum heads...

Road Test: 2007 GMC Sierra Denali, Part I
By: Mike Levine Posted: 04-02-07 07:11 PT

When it comes to special edition big pickups, the manufacturers giveth and they taketh away. Every few years sees the introduction of another unique limited-run hot rod or beauty queen, like the Chevrolet Silverado SS, Dodge Ram SRT-10, Ford F-150 SVT Lightning, or (cough) Lincoln Blackwood (cough). But sooner or later these hyped-up halo trucks jump the shark and disappear at the dispassionate clutches of bean counters, mercy killings, or both.
Whether by luck or good planning, GMC’s Sierra Denali has succeeded where these other trucks have failed by constantly reinventing itself before those who wear the green eyeshades could snuff it out. It was the first pickup to offer four-wheel steering (2002-2005) and the first full size to feature all-wheel-drive (2001), when it originally debuted as the Sierra C3. Only Ford’s Harley Davidson badged F-Series trucks have lived longer or changed more to survive.
The Sierra Denali is back for 2007. Like GM’s other half-ton and heavy duty haulers it’s all new from the ground up but we haven’t been able to get our mitts on it until now, just as it reaches dealer lots. The General has decided this launch will be a stealthy one, probably to keep demand up for this year’s trucks so buyers don’t postpone their purchase waiting for the Denali’s new powertrain advancements to trickle out to the other 1500 class GMT900 trucks next year and beyond. But this is one unique rig worthy of a special write-up because the Sierra Denali offers performance and luxury features that no other full size truck has today.
Let’s start with the Sierra Denali’s power and drivetrain. There’s been considerable gnashing of teeth from domestic pickup fans because Toyota’s remade 2007 Tundra was the first and only half-ton to offer a six-speed automatic gearbox and the most powerful gas engine in a standard duty pickup. The small block 5.7-liter iForce DOHC V8 engine in the Tundra is rated at 381 horsepower and 401 lb-feet of torque. But Tundra’s brief reign as power king is over, because the Sierra Denali checks the Tundra’s tranny with its 6L80E six-speed shifter and checkmates the iForce with GM’s mighty Corvette-inspired 6.2-liter L92 Vortec V8. The quasi big block pounds out 403 horsepower and 417 lb-feet of torque. The L92 and 6L80E are GMC exclusives this year but all GM light duty pickups will start to replace their four-speed 4L80E transmissions with the 6L80E in the 2008 model year, as build capacity increases. The Vortec meets other iForce powertrain advances head-on to also offer variable valve timing (another Sierra Denali first for a pickups with pushrod engines) for both the intake and exhaust valve timing. VVT helps bump up torque on the low end and horsepower on the high end. More on this later.
When it comes to the drivetrain, the Denali continues its original tradition of transferring power to the road through an all wheel drive setup, although two wheel drive is optional if you want to save a few a few thousand and incrementally improve fuel economy. But if you’re spending this much for a luxury sport touring pickup, you really need to go with AWD for the extra-grippy performance and all-weather safety it provides. The only other full size pickup to offer AWD is Ford’s Harley-Davidson F-150 but it’s engine is the standard 5.4-liter Triton V8, rated at 300 horsepower / 365 lb-feet of torque, that’s available across the entire F-150 lineup.
So how does the Sierra Denali perform? Like that most poetic of pugilists the refined and forceful L92 6L80E AWD combo floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee. On the drag strip the Sierra Denali consistently ran 14.8-second quarter mile times at 93.9 miles per hour during three runs at Old Bridge Township Park Raceway in New Jersey. 0 to 60 times were clocked at 6.3 seconds. The truck weighed in at a hefty 5706 pounds, unloaded except for the driver. Although the 6L80E offers operators a manual tap-shift capability for its six speed, I left it full auto for all the runs.
Now, let’s give these figures some perspective through a virtual drag contest against the Toyota. Edmunds.com timed a 2007 Toyota Tundra Double Cab 4x4 with the 5.7-liter iForce with almost identical results. For both trucks the quarter mile and 0 to 60 times are the same, but the Sierra Denali finished .2 miles per hour faster than the 93.7-mph scored by the Tundra. Where it gets interesting is that the Denali is geared for better fuel economy targets while the Tundra is geared for better towing performance. The Denali’s final drive ratio is a stocky 3.42:1, to help push up its CAFE scores, but the 6L80E’s broad range compensates by using an extremely low 4.03 first gear and VVT to ensure quick starts off the line. The tested Tundra had a much lower 4.1 rear axle ratio, as it was optionally equipped with a trailering package to tow a hefty 10,400-lbs - 1,700-lbs more than the Denali - and it used a 3.33 first gear for launch. One final consideration, the Denali ran the track shod with 20-inch chromed dubs while the Edmunds Tundra used 18-inch wheels.
