What type of wood did you all use?

[@jamesford2942]

Love the sound of the thunder boats. Whistling is not my thing. Great piece of history. Thanks

Thanks for posting these; interesting to learn about the history of the boats...Had forgotten that the Pak was originally automotive powered in 1970...

This is a great video. I always liked this boat. As a kid, I took some close up super 8 video of this boat but I believe after it was converted back to a conventional. I was in Detroit. Jim P Macomb, MI

Sure wish I could of heard those 2 massaged KB Hemi's for real !!

[@deanhil3978]

He left out a very important part of the hemi, the valves are next to the ports, not side by side.akes for straight through flow....
