FIRST WATER TEST OF WIFE'S TWIN TURBO LS-POWERED JET BOAT!

[@davidgough1161]

I love Peter's facial expressions, they are priceless!! He is incredible with what he is willing to put up with your shenanigans, obviously a real cool guy from his videos. You guys fit well together

[@RichardMLowe]

I caught the KSR version Mike

[@XGNShorty]

dam mike you've built some friendship's with some amazing people over the years.

[@fukemallgarage]

It seems like he becomes tight with every cool person he meets. He himself has to be coos as a fan

[@metrickarma]

When Kevin has board-shorts on, you know shits about to get REAL FAST!

[@shelleyking8450]

So nice of you to get all the bugs worked out of the wife's boat for you. She will have fun when you have both boats running, you can enjoy the lake together.

[@srharris88]

Sick build! 21 daytonas are one of the fastest hulls I know of, the power to weight ratio is really good. That thing is gonna rip once you get it tuned right! Bet that red and black is as hot as it looks after being in the sun for a little bit.

[@peterad1529]

I love how clean and low profile the instal is. Cool boat indeed 😎

[@StrykerBuilt]

"BIg Jet boat Dynos you can ride" I love it. Brilliant! That is it exactly.

[@bryanluntz1603]

Heard that too👍

[@inmyopinion6836]

Congrats Mike, that's a Chip Foose quality looking job. The engine is amazing!

[@1JayZed]

love how compact the turbo system is.

[@Evolucion7]

I was so afraid that yellow rag was going to come loose and get sucked into the turbo @24:10

[@roymcdavid1015]

Looked like a few more seconds and it would have came loose at least.

[@michaelmaher4328]

Your group is kool. The brain, the welder, the tuner, and the support team. Happy hot rodding on the water.

[@tintin6892]

16:10 I love that Laptop Guy is toughing it out in the airflow while the other two duck and run for cover!

[@AntiPattern328]

Absolutely love that hull design. You can rip in those in almost any conditions... Well, choppier than most jet boats would like. Just smooooothe!

[@tony66au]

Well we SAW Your Wife driving the boat soooo we know its a ton of fun! Awesome to see how she got there with Kev and Petes help :-)

[@RozcoDan]

Just bought my first jet boat 20ft 77 Sleekcraft …so we are learning together…thanks Mike and Pete!!!

[@ed35084]

Dam it finally hit clicked! All these years Newbern always reminded me of someone and I just realized it was Silent Bob. You guys are like Jay and Silent Bob!

[@atangmolale2159]

Hi from Botswana I love the videos

[@anomamos9095]

There’s some times an issue with the crank sensor picking up noise from other hunks of metal other than the reluctor wheel. Others have moved the sensor to the front of the crank on an external wheel to solve it.

[@StrykerBuilt]

Copy that.

[@AtlasLathe]

Coming soon on Finnegan`s Garage " The Wife wants more power in her boat and we are installing a Steve Morris LMX. I would have to install a turbo screen. With my luck I would loose my glasses or hat and have it kill the turbo

[@LymerPnB]

Correction, installing the engine from game over.. so they can install a SMX into gameover

[@NOQUARTER_]

My hat flew off a few years ago while racing a good friend of mine and got sucked into my turbo. It's 1 hell of a ride when your running about 130 mph and come to almost a dead stop. What really sucked besides having to buy a new turbskie is the water that came rushing in from the back of the boat and swamped the hell out of my new LSX build. Luckily it didn't swamp all my Holly electronics 😱👍😂

[@BF26595]

@@LymerPnB The 711 in gameover is already a sick Brodix aluminium block and with the cubes it has and the turbos on it, it could easily crank out 3500hp. The problem with gameover is that the suction hardware on the bottom of the boat where the jet drive ingests water is not yet properly calibrated and at a certain speed the boat is so far out of the water that it can't suck in any more water and hits a speed limit and the engine goes revving to the moon.

[@robertlawler1387]

If your hat stayed on untill 130 it needed to come off so a helmet might fit.

[@NOQUARTER_]

@@robertlawler1387 well see when you raise your head up slightly over the windshield the wind sorta grabs it and does whatever. Also I dont tell anyone including you on what to do or how to do it because it's YOUR LIFE not mine. So how about you not worrying about mine and trying to persuade me to put a helmet on. I promise you I've been in A LOT WORSE circumstances in my life that required a helmet. So weather I'm going fast in my 1200hp boat or my 3000hp twin turbo race car it's my decision on how much of a dumbass I wanna be. As long as I'm not involving or hurting any other people or things besides me and my own then it's no bodies business but my own. I hope this helps clear things up for you. Now go worry about someone that gives 2 shits about what you think.

[@StingrayBob]

Thanx! Great episode. Now we are ready for more car stuff.. #1 Caddy, #2 Blasphemi, #3 Race truck and then the Ramp truck if that one is not strict Roadkill stuff 🤔

[@FinnegansGarage]

Blasphemi is back home. so is the ramp truck. will be working on both here real soon. As soon as the engine for the Caddy arrives we'll be back on that project.

[@Greg1096]

@@FinnegansGarage I'm definitely looking forward to seeing some progress on the caddy, it is going to be such a cool thing to see that land yacht flying down a track 🤟

[@dnmgg6]

Really inspiring to watch Finn. Keep it up!

[@FinnegansGarage]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@marshallwilliams4054]

Super cool boat. Great to see Kevin from KSR on your channel

[@bryanluntz1603]

Happy 4th ya Guys A Pleasure to meet ya I agree Kevin That is a beautiful hull Glad things are working out well with it Mike That's a great family Hotrod Enjoy vacation

[@mattlunetta490]

Pretty awesome. Boats are so temperamental & I can't imagine how much that increases with a project like this.

[@1slow5point0]

I always had the old ball valve setup on the engine feed line to try and set the flow. Usually after a couple good header burns I’d get the temperature where I wanted it lol

[@bullhead360]

Gate valve works better my friend👍🏼

[@StrykerBuilt]

Gate valve that feed line from the bowl to engine. A bit more precise. Just does not look "cool"....

[@glamiskid50]

The boat turned out bad ass have fun this weekend with it hope she digs it I’m sure she will

[@beekeeper6109]

Thanks!

[@FinnegansGarage]

You bet!

[@veto8792]

That thing’s a ripper! You’re such a good husband. Hope your wife enjoys it.

[@davberg8366]

Beautiful boat and workmanship, I still think u should call it "Game On", the sister to Game Over.

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

Always awesome seeing what these legends are capable of! 🙌

[@BBQandBolts]

I appreciate the how the boat became that color excerpt. I want to paint my Mastercraft red but haven't figured out how yet! The pickle-fork jet boat rocks! Looks killer.

[@FUCK_________googIe]

Just scuff it real good and shoot some epoxy primer on it. Once you decide to go with a multi stage paint, everything is pretty much the same as painting a car

[@jaredstafford5565]

Sweet...the wifey should be happy 😊 😃 lol . It's coming along nicely 👌

[@texaspirate7648]

Reminds me of the 70's Keep it up brings back a lot memory's

Two smart guys right there.

[@mbrewer57]

The boat is cool, but I want to see more of that Datsun wagon in the background!

[@EGHeartattack]

Eliminator did a killer job on the hull and you guys built it to the perfect spec! It looks super stable at high speed! Are you bringing it out to any events soon?

[@loydcourson5276]

What was the hose that was loose it was to the right of the turbo looking at the engine cam.

[@1celtickiwi]

what a clean set up bro.

[@aserta]

You need a water deflector for the rear, quite a bit of water splashes over.

[@vehdynam]

Long time coming , but vacations take precedence. Very interesting video. I hope to see more soon. Many thanks. ps; Boat looks stunning .

[@MarkLohde]

You need a boost controller on this!! Such a beautiful boat!!! nice!

[@markstopkey4085]

Alright, you talked me into it. I'm getting an old Eliminator, LSX with twin turbos and see how bad I can mess it up!

[@mcjok88]

FREEKIN awesome 👍 Been waiting for this. Better than I imagined half way through. Thanks Guys!!!💥🇺🇲

[@MadmanJnr]

Honestly I think the most important part of this build, isn't the epic looking hull, it isn't the sweet Texas speed twin turbo power plant. It's the fact that Mrs. Finnegan approves!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@FinnegansGarage]

Couldn't agree more!

I wish I could have Pete tune my c10. he had that boat running sweet!!!

[@justinwatch]

12:05 Kevin has an Alfalfa thing going on. 🤣🤣🤣

[@ryleyverbeek44]

I think what you’re experiencing when you let of the throttle and the boat delays to slow down is that the air has packed into the tunnels and you are riding on the “cushion” of air and when you let off the throttle it takes a moment for the boat to settle back into the water

[@biggierat6246]

GOOD JOB guys !!!

[@dtemplman7816]

Kevin is the man with the plan

[@Roaddogg1111]

How about a ball valve to adjust the water pressure?

[@shadowred1980]

Enjoyed that, thanks for posting.

[@NoRemorse92086]

I didn't see it in the video, did he say where they are going on vacation? I saw a new red jet boat in our lake yesterday on a very large lake in Michigan.

[@sparks111273]

Cool boat! Can you use Co2 to control the gates and blow off valve like drag racers do?

[@Gaijin_7]

Hey Finnegan, I’m gonna be pulling the twin turbo ls out of my mantra v bottom and putting it in my liberator tunnel hull. The thing I’m trying to figure out thats a concern is how to run the fuel lines. I was curious how your returns are plumbed and if your keeping the fuel tanks fairly equal on level how? Any helps appreciated thank you. The mantra was easy to keep tanks equal as the v shape allowed me to add a line to them to help equal the tanks out using gravity.

[@eliminator1978]

Cruising 75, my jet only goes 60 on a good day! That’s a nice float!

[@bullhead360]

Lol!! Same!!!

[@aztommy1687]

You guys need more HP and pump work!

[@eliminator1978]

@@aztommy1687 More HP just went in. Gained 600RPM, +120 HP. Just need to dial in the handling. Pretty squirrelly when you get out of it now.

[@blueman5924]

Gorgeous boat ! 🔥🤙

[@yarrdayarrdayarrda]

Cool build still curious what happened to all the above transom exhaust laws.

[@mrt2952]

I love the sticker on his laptop!

[@eskudosal]

Dang that’s hardcore try running some variable geometry turbos like a exhaust break to help with a quicker decel?🧐

[@Rcdaddy377]

Bad ass boat. Would love to see a V drive build though. Jets are cool and all but it’ll never be as fast as a v drive with the same build. Having reverse is a pro though

[@StrykerBuilt]

I had to bite my lip on that comment made in the video as well hahahaha. V-DRIVE FLATTIES 4 EVER BABY!

[@Greg1096]

V-drive boats are badass, and a ton more straight forward to get set up, though I've seen a few of the higher horsepower ones detonate the v-drive and those aren't exactly cheap to replace, too bad that pickup they had with the v-drive got stolen

[@mikeyacullo444]

Kevin is the man

[@davidkeesling6209]

Put a hitch ball on the front of the side-by-side. Much easier to manuever down narrow difficult boat ramps

[@zigpapa4256]

You should do a calibration with puddins fab shop. He’s been redoing a badass mini u-haul trucks, he’s currently putting a box on a Datsun on custom air suspension. I think that would be a fun calibration.

[@Belktronix]

So what's the difference on this one vs the other boat you did with the truck motor swap/add turbos/kick the rods out the bottom?

[@1525kings]

Are you going to the Waterloo boogaloo on Lake Greenwood SC on July 15th?

[@kiisu74]

What's that blue thing? First gen Accord wagon? Cool.

[@Blacktop73]

Can't wait for the Steve morrison motor just whole different ballgame then Texas speed motor

[@StrykerBuilt]

25:29 is latent jet bowl pressure as well, no?

[@tomhill9445]

I have yet to see an LS in a dragboat. Gotta be soon.

[@torqueandbeanssauce]

I could have sworn I saw co2 bottle on the boat. But I like the wastegate design with the screw on retaining ring, I always hated trying to hold it with alot of pressure and thread bolts in.

[@tedcarlson6007]

I think the C02 is to control his jet bucket ( reverse forward control)

[@Remgrantd]

Is that a KE55 in the background?

[@chuckstith838]

How come I saw a Christmas wreath on the shop door? What month is it?

[@Chemist9662]

HEY. Could somebody explain to me why the current don't flow back into Kevin while he's touching the table with his stick hand and arcing to the work grounded to the table? Isn't that betting that the work is more conductive? What would happen if the arc stopped running to the work and went to the stick while his hand was contacting the table?

[@Chemist9662]

Like if he had the work clamped, I'd understand. But isn't the table grounded....so

What impellor is in that jet pump is it an A Ab or BC
