    NEW GUY

    FIRST JET BOAT !!!! I love it I am hooked for life. Really looking for correct info. I want to represent correctly. From the hull VIN it shows to be Sleek Craft 1976. From a little research I believe 20 foot Streaker? Did rebuild the 460. Is that correct motor? does it matter? it has been pretty well taken care of. Always loved Jet boats !!! Now I have one. Want do it right. Appreciate any and all help. Thanks.

    I can't answer any of your specific questions but if it runs and puts a big smile on you face, that's all that matters.

    Thats a very nice float you have there.

    Welcome to the madness!!!

    And yes, a big block Ford is absolutely correct in your float. Some people go Olds or even worse Chev but the world can be a weird confusing place sometimes. We will need some more pics and some motor build info please, because we like that stuff!
