1978 Eliminator Dragster
        
                          19' Eliminator with a Chevy 502 big
                          block with nitrous. The engine is in
                          great shape. The jet pump is a Berkley
                          pump and it is in great shape as well.
                          This is a rocket. It'll do 80 mph without
                          nitrous and 90 with nitrous. Its jetted
                          for a 275 shot of nitrous right now, but
                          all you have to do to increase the
                          nitrous is put in a bigger jet (the jets
                          are cheap and very easy to change and you
                          can buy them at any auto store). This
                          boat has a beautiful one of a kind paint
                          job. There is one small flaw on one side
                          where it says Eliminator and a spot under
                          the nose where it latches to the trailer
                          but neither one is very bad. This has
                          been a very fun boat but I have three
                          kids, so I don't take it out much because
                          we have a more family friendly boat that
                          the wife and kids prefer more and there
                          isn't many calm days on the water in the
                          area that we live in. I've owned this
                          boat for about 5 years and I've only
                          taken it out about 3 times in the last
                          couple years. I had two fuel cells custom
                          built for this boat to increase the fuel
                          capacity so I could stay out on the water
                          longer, they cost me $5000. It originally
                          had two 9 gallon cells and now the new
                          ones hold about 15 each so now it holds
                          about 50% more which made a huge
                          difference. The original tanks were made
                          of stainless steel and the new ones are
                          aluminum so it holds about 72 more pounds
                          of fuel but the tanks are lighter so I
                          don't think that it increases the overall
                          weight much if any. I want to buy a 67-69
                          Camaro so if by chance you have one and
                          are interested in a trade, that could be
                          an option. This has been a very
                          dependable turn key boat and I hate to
                          see it go, but I can't get the Camaro and
                          keep this due to the space in my shop.
                          Feel free to call or text, but please
                          keep it between 8am and 9pm Pacific
