Re: Homemade Captains call?

Met some people anchored off the beach, had one of those cigarette type boats. He called it CAPTAINS CHOICE. Sort off like opening up the lakes pipes on a flat head ford or J-2 olds. Use quiet mod for taxing in the canals and open for off shore. Sounded pretty good once he was 2 miles off shore. Certainly would not want to hear it in the canals even at idle. regards fred.

A 4.3L will not sound like a Blown Big block. So don’t expect to sound like the " cigarette boats" IT will be hard to get the angle exactly right on the diverter. I would just buy a set off ebay.... might not be cheaper, but it will work and no one ever said boating as a cheap hobby.
