CUSTOM Exhaust, Mounts, Plumbing, and Rigging on my JET BOAT

I am reveling in this phase of the restoration and rebuild of my '79 Centurion more than any other. With the big block Chevy now powering this jet boat, I’ve plunged into the task of rigging it up. This is where I truly get to unleash my creative freedom—or perhaps it’s my OCD, or even my anal retentiveness? Who can say? The problem-solving aspect of these fitment challenges is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m a function-first kind of guy, but that doesn’t mean I’ll sacrifice appearance. I’m always willing to go the extra mile (and then some) to ensure everything is both functional and top-notch. That should be no secret by now... lol. In the last installment of this rebuild, we encountered two significant fitment issues. I was unable—or rather, unwilling—to cut the rear engine plate as needed to allow room for the LH exhaust log and snail to be installed. Additionally, there wasn’t enough space to mount the alternator. After some thought, I came up with some decent, budget-minded solutions that turned out killer! If you’ve been following the build, you know I seem to favor the long and hard route when tackling these problems, and the work in this video is no exception. Building these custom parts is a real challenge with my limited tools, but I don’t let that hold back my ambitions. I’m always pushing myself to improve and find new ways to get things done, and that drive was in full force in this video. I was thrilled with how my custom parts turned out—they were cheap, simple to make, and maintained top-notch aesthetics. I hope you guys enjoy the video. I genuinely appreciate all of the support!

I imagine my early exposure to this culture ignited a spark of interest in cars, which remains my passion. 🎓 I am a proud Alumni of Wyoming Technical Institute @WyoTechAutoMechanicSchool where I studied Automotive Technology, Performance Engine Building & Street Rod Fabrication. In addition to "WyoTech," I graduated from the BMW Service Technician Education Program, more commonly known as BMW S.T.E.P. 🏎️ I spent nearly ten years working in various BMW dealerships as a Master Technician. After a move back home to the PNW, I found myself no longer servicing German-made machines but now working with Italians. I spent nearly another ten years as a Ferrari Master Technician & Shop Foreman at a local Ferrari dealership. 🏆 Ferrari selected me as one of 12 technicians worldwide to compete in the "Ferrari Testa Rossa Awards" for four years consecutively. Finishing in 3rd place in 2016, & in 2019 I was able to place in 1st, winning the competition & earning the title of the "Top Ferrari Technician in the World!" 🚀 As my time with Ferrari came to an end, a new career path awaited me…. Aerospace. I am currently working at Blue Origin, helping to build & develop the BE-3PM and BE-3U rocket engines. With my new career path, I needed an outlet for my automotive passion, thus the reason for this channel… #jetboat #gelcoat #socaljetboats #transom #autotechnick #speedboat #hotboat #classicboat #stringers #berkeleyjet #centurion #bigblock #bigblockchevy #powerboat #boatrestoration
