    Lexus V8 motors are great in jetboats, I've had two boats with them & never had any problems apart from having to change the leads on the second one, I also put a Cam kit in which upped the HP.

    Looks like it needs a new air filter, every 50hrs oil & filters & give the jet unit bearing a couple of pumps of grease.

    enjoy they are a lot of fun

    What sort of fuel usage would a boat like this use with the Lexus (very nice in the Cruisers I do know)
    I realise it depends on hull - load etc - but approx lph (or gph)
