I decided I needed a tunnel for the UL1 motor I finally nabbed for a P-spec boat, and since there are no more kit's available I decided to scratch build one.

Well I have taken a look at all the OB stuff laying around the shop and figure it is high time to let it all go to new homes. All the rest of the boat stuff is not very usable(used and abused)LOL. Race ported MAC21, Cf pipe and polished Lawless lower(never seen water) 300$... a Hijacker...
