Hello,
I thought you might like to add this one to collection of boats built - Glen-L Missile - archive section
Inside the boat has been fitted for fast ski racing. Dual Rae-Line buckets. A Haynes Hellyer vee-drive gearbox, linked via the jack shaft is a magnificently chromed 302 Chev. The five litre engine has plenty of trick gear inside and out. It's a stock 302 Z-28 steel crank, swinging of the crank are a set of stock 350 Chev rods. The cam is high lift, high sports grind, with Chev 350 heads used with a thorough port and polish. Edelbrock Tarantula inlet mainfold, with a Holley 700 double pumper. No need to say that this boat goes, top speed clocked at a little over 80 miles per hour (the speedo only goes to 80..lol). The boat was started in 1978 and first touched water in 1982; built in Echuca on the border of New South Wales and Victoria, Australia. Now living in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
sincerely,
Kendal Shoobridge
