I can already hear the growl at start up.
Please please please do the break in period to the exact process. These motors are tight internally and need that break in period to loosen up and be free for years to come.

Congrats, looks amazing. I don't think you will miss the smoke from a 2 stroke and buying oil at all.

Congratulations! Looks great and I love that color combo of your Triton. I'm sure it was worth the wait!

Thanks everyone.
Today’s a “work day” but I’ll be driving in circles breaking it in tomorrow.
I had the color match proXS decals on my last one and just ordered them for this!

2 hours down.
Geez….this thing runs!!! I can’t wait to open it up and dial it in. The torque is unreal. I thought 200hp is 200hp but this seems on a whole other level than my 2 stroke XS

Wife thinks I’m a little crazy for repowering a ‘16 instead of just getting a new boat.
I just don’t have the itch I used to. I’ve got a ton of blood (mostly from fiberglass shards in my arm) and sweat in this boat rigging it perfectly for me and I don’t want to start over. Does she fully understand the $$ difference in buying a new boat and repowering???
Be safe, Rayzor ![[Linked Image]](http://i418.photobucket.com/albums/pp267/JLedbetter/th_Boatpics036.jpg) 2001 Triton Tx-21/225 Mercury EFI
