I bought this baja 22es 20 years ago 1991, it hasn't been in the water in the last 8 years.
I'll have to check it over good 1st, it just makes me feel guilty every time I walk by it in the warehouse.
It looks just like it came off the showroom floor today.
It's a modified 454, tops out at 78 mph, cruises at 60 mph around 3000 rpm.

right AND wrong sort of, there was a movie called gator and one called white lightning both with burt in them, and he was called gator in both if im not mistaken, but gator (the movie) is the one with the boat youre thinking of and white lightning was the one where he was a "stool pigeon" trying catch a corrupt sherrif that killed his brother

Finally got to the boat, after checking everything out, [she hadn't been cranked since 2002] I was delighted ran perfect and ran her up to 75 mph last Sat.
I had to move a couple of other things that were blocking the boat, corvette [not started since 2003], and a 2001 sportster [not cranked since 2007].
The vette has a leaking torque converter seal,but cranked and ran fine.
The sportster, I had to clean out the carb, it ran perfect today on a 70 mile test run.

I got a fantastic deal on this yesterday, engine is fresh 600+hp roller 496 ci aluminum heads, and dry sumped.
I think, I'm gonna be somewhere in the mid+ 80s.

Props are more efficient, but you can't throw roost! :)
