Installing The 500 HP LS1 Into Our Junkyard Jetboat!

[@williamwoodfork627]

Clean and buff. It will still have a worn patina that will look badass

[@Motiv8Labs]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@FreezyAbitKT7A]

clean and buff. get tanks for the Enigma, use those in the jetboat .

[@Motiv8Labs]

I’ll have to measure the old houseboat tanks this weekend because that might actually work. Not a bad idea. We need to build new ones for the houseboat anyway.

[@idahofisherman100]

Clean and buff the boat. Plan on getting 2 miles per gallon.

[@Motiv8Labs]

Thanks for the vote!

[@rickybobby9498]

Pressure wash "JUNKYARD JET BOAT" in the side and buff the letters only. Put 3 seats in it and call it good.

[@Jack-st2oj]

these are quality videos my man. please keep em coming

[@Motiv8Labs]

Thanks for the feedback man I appreciate it!

[@markjohnson3616]

Gonna be fin love what you guys do with boat i miss budget boat hope it did not break

[@Motiv8Labs]

Budget boat is coming back out to see what broke after sitting over the winter. Hopefully nothing but we’ll see.

[@proforceracingproducts77]

Your motor plate and bolt bin moment lived up to how I'd have pictured it. 😂 You guys are awesome!

[@Motiv8Labs]

Gotta see if that old BBORR Camaro engine can do something useful

[@MakingStuff]

Coming along great! Hand throttle for sure.

[@Motiv8Labs]

Thanks I’m in the hand throttle camp too

[@BoondockingCajunstyle]

Dude, get you self some cutting wax for that bandsaw or anything used to cut grind aluminum. Clean and buff

[@Motiv8Labs]

Thanks for the note I ordered some blade wax today on ole slamazon

[@BoondockingCajunstyle]

@@Motiv8Labs I use it for everything, from cutting to driving screws. Works especially well for cutting with an abrasive wheel

[@bryanglover3217]

You got to run to flywheel cover if that flywheel comes off it'll solve right to the bottom of the boat and don't forget the thickness of the gasket on the pump that just raised your pup up and ate a 16th

[@Motiv8Labs]

Good point on that thing becoming a big sawblade if the bolts stripped out on the crank. Also good call on the gasket adding a little height when it's mounted.

[@carsandadventures5454]

Definitely cut and buff it and restore the exterior! For a poker run you are going to want a hand throttle

[@Motiv8Labs]

Thanks for the comment I’m onboard with keeping the hand throttle too

[@travismattingly5000]

Lightly sand then cut n buff. There are plenty of videos on restoring gel coat.

[@Motiv8Labs]

Thanks for the vote!

[@Beachesnoars]

Buy some of those out door seat cushions inside.

[@Motiv8Labs]

That’s actually a good idea!

[@grahammedlock3094]

Buff it out!!

[@daltonjameseberhart]

🤘🤘🤘🤘 your welcome 😅

[@Beachesnoars]

Great work, great editing, and the ugliest models in Texas. Lol looks like you guys have a lot of it figured out. Interior wise, what do you guys have planned

[@Motiv8Labs]

To try and get it done for this poker run pretty emtpy interior. We’ll try and at least get some cheapo carpet down so we aren’t waking on bare fiberglass. Looking for some cheap seats too.

[@TheStephenspann27]

I say make it look restored on the outside. I vote for hand throttle. Letting off the throttle in a jet boat makes it not steer

[@Motiv8Labs]

I’m in the hand throttle camp too. I don’t know why JT wants the foot pedal so bad. He had a jetboat for years but it was a low profile boat where your legs were sticking out like you are in a car. In that little jet boat it kinda makes sense since you could keep both hands on the wheel since it turned like a jetski. This boat is so big I don’t think we have to worry about holding on for dear life to the wheel. We’ll see.

[@superstitiousfishes1247]

you should cross promote with a auto / marine detailing channel. let them buff it out. you get a video and exposure to their audience, they get a video and exposure to your audience. everybody wins!

[@Motiv8Labs]

That’s a good idea! It’s either that or let Cody buff the whole boat back out and finish what he started 7 years ago.
