Twin-Turbo Jet Boat Rips the Water! Finnegan's Garage Ep.96
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 апр 2020
- Our fourth lake test was a success! After troubleshooting the ignition and fuel systems that plagued our last test session, we finally got to rip across the water at 90 mph and there's plenty of speed left in this beast once we get the air/fuel mixture tuned perfectly and stop the turbos from trying to melt the fiberglass boat hull. This video has lots of tips about troubleshooting V8 engines and it ends with us having the time of our lives in Game Over, our twin-turbo jet boat.
Note: I live at the lake and nobody was near me when we tested the jet boat. We are staying away from people just like you are, I just happen to be fortunate enough to live in a rural part of Georgia. Anyway, thanks for watching and for liking and commenting on this video. We'll be back soon with another one!
If you'd like more information about the ultrasonic parts washer that we used on the spark plugs in this video then go here:

Game Over is a 2017 Peterson Placecraft fiberglass Jet Boat hull
It's powered by an aluminum 711ci Sonny Leonard Hemi with twin Precision 88mm turbochargers. It features CP pistons, Carrillo connecting rods and a Bullet camshaft. T&D shaft rockers and Manley valves and springs are in the heads. The engine and boat is wired completely using Wirecare.com and Techflex products. It runs on 118 octane Rockett Brand racing fuel. The efi is from Holley, the ignition is MSD and the jet drive is a Dominator pump built by B1 Racing. I welded the headers from a kit by Stainlessheaders.com.

Seeing a wide shot of the boat in the water really makes you appreciate how bloody big that motor is!!!
it barely stays afloat because of the weight of the engine. this is one of the better problems to have.
My flatbottom is the same way!! My cousin said "it lQQk's like you tied a big block chevy to a surfboard" ...from Wyoming USA 🔫🤠🇺🇸p.s. stay safe and healthy everybody ❤
right. glad its got a massive motor and 2 massive turbs to give it some perspective of its size lol
@@codycampbell4728 468ci 700hp B.B. chevy no turbo's but my exhaust is bigger! LOL...from Wyoming USA 🔫🤠🇺🇸p.s. stay safe and healthy everybody ❤
@@billallen4793 lol, sounds like you have it running decent then. be safe to man! ill try to be, unfortunately right outside dc-baltimore, nyc so just counting down the days until i get me some lung kung flu!
“Kinda ran out of fuel”😂 This is why I love this channel so much. Your not afraid to show your mishaps. Lord knows how many times I’ve had to take stuff apart after I already put it together.
Thanks Finnegan. Really appreciate you keeping the original fanbase alive on RUclips
Thanks for watching!
Plug wires, injectors, thrust bearing possible issues in the entire power train,, etc., etc. Awsum tips Finnigan for any novice motor head!
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour you're gonna see some serious shit.
Where Finnegan's going, he won't need roads.
now thats just funny.. thx
LMFAO
😂😂👍
thank goodness hes got his kevlar shorts
When the engine is running the close captioning says “Music” ,it ain’t lying.
This “jesus of Nazareth”, NAZARETH NOT Bethlehem, was NOT Who they Crucified for your sins.
Here is the REAL Messiah
Yad He Vav He is what Moses wrote (Dead Sea Scrolls Exodus 3), not "I Am" OR "God"
Yad = Hand
He = Breath
Vav = Nail
He = Breath
Yad He, which forms The Creators Name YaH, (Hand Breath), as YaH's Hand Forms/Creates and His Breath brings forth life (Adam)
Vav He (Nail Breath), YaH's Sacrifice of Crucifixion, for those who call YaH Savior, His Breath brings forth life (Salvation)
YaH arrives via the Tent of Meeting (Exodus 33:7:11), the exact same way YaH arrived to Joseph NOT through childbirth.
YaH was NOT Crucified on a "cross", but according to Hebrew law (Deuteronomy 21), to be nailed on an Almond Tree for blasphemy as the Messiah claimed He was YaH.
He was YaH
Isaiah 42:8
"I am YaH; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.

I am YaH, and there is none else.

@@Praise___YaH 😣🤔
Calmly and clearly presented. Enjoyed this. Back in the day we always had to replace wires and distributor cap on our rusty old bangers (UK). What a lovely clean shop.
The only thing that startup sequence is missing is the “captains log” from Star Trek
"Captains Log Track Date 4 6 2020, we entered the realm of the boat race peoples with the USS Game Overterprise"
Reminded me of the start of back to the future where Marty turns the amp up to 11
“Stardate 2020”
Your a freaking trip dude,,,,lmao
The "Captain's log" was deposited in the toilet beforehand. 😜
Finally a good rip. What weighs more in this boat than the engine. Finnegan's Balls.
His name is all over this channel, in the video, etc but you can't spell it. Sad.
Jay Trock Wow, that’s so funny, and creative. Where in the world did you come up with that?
Those balls are the only thing counterbalancing the engine.
Mucho granda gonads !
Funny!!!
I'm so happy your getting things worked out....keep up the great work....everything looks awesome....are you rethinking installing bigger fuel tanks now.....Thank you and God Bless you Mike Finnegan and thanks Dave for all you do too...
Holy Hell! I’ve been watching these videos for over 4 years? I remember game over going to SEMA. Where has my life gone?
Next time on Finnegans garage making a aluminum emergency paddle by hand
Lol
With every expensive specialty tool we could possibly use
@@sicklad3277 would actually love to see how many they could properly use before losing it lmao
Rex Marine used to sell billet aluminum paddles, not sure if anyone is currently making them.
@@barryobler9491 searched them, 120 bucks and out of stock
The thingy barely floats when it's not moving. Love it
It doesn't displace much water. Funny how physics works!!
its stealthy.
This type of boat is built thin like an ironing board to make it light... just don't back up fast or water comes over the transom and sinks it... scooped up by the cavitation/trim plate... also avoid the huge wakes from larger boats... or ships !!!!
Finnegan's Garage
Just love the way that hull comes on trim so quickly, it’s sweet 🍬
@@FinnegansGarage please elaborate on how a twin turbo jet boat with no exhaust is stealthy
Truly a thing of beauty to see and hear that go flying by the shore.
I love how it sounds, good job figuring out the problems
I love your use of the RUclips platform, every video is enjoyable and a learning experience!
I love how the boat shakes around as soon as you start it lol
:3
I grew up around the older drag style jet boats and man they are fun! The Hawaiian hull with a big block chevy that I rode in most would do about 75 mph and it really took some pump work and trying different intake and carb set ups and hull work around the intake grate and finishing the bottom of the boat with a 80 grit orbital sander type of finish to help break suction to the water supposedly. So much fun!! Your boat is absolutely amazing!!
Real tech videos anyone can enjoy/benefit from regardless of age or experience. Thank you!
finnegan is the type of guy too have so much hp in his boat that he melts the boat and sinks
When your such a hot rod guy that even your boat is a hot rod.
No no, the boat's *the* hot rod. Mike just happens to have a couple of nice cars too.
Doesn't everybody have hot rod cars, boats, trucks, motorcycles, shop vacs?
@@BuzzLOLOL Everything but a hot rod shop vac.
Beautiful boat and always enjoy watching your work over the years.
I've been watching all the old roadkills and seeing you now is just like whoa.
The draws/door shelves/trays you find in refrigerators make perfect oil drain pans, all sizes available free from your local dump!
"Our fourth lake test was a success!"
...doesn't make it back in by end of video.
Would you expect anything less? This kind of thing makes me keep coming back!
Torque2Spec do you know how much fuel you had when you started ?How big is your fuel tank if i was you i would put another battery under your seat and put an electric trolling motor in the front of the boat so you can get back to shore with out bothering other boaters
@@gerrylee4141 Bothering other boaters lol. Not too many people out on the lake with somewhere to be and a lot to do, ykwim?
hey he made it back just needed a tow lol
Because Roadkill
This thing is so freaking cool Finnegan! Can't wait to see you going full rip in it!
The way a man cuts a trash can in half says a lot about him. Pro-fab quality band saw with sticker collection that most dream of and even shimmed for a level cut... Attn to detail (ATD). That welding station is beyond neat and handy too. Plug tray shows more of that un-laziness and ATD. Thanks for the videos sir enjoying this series and it grounds all of us, I think, to see that everyone runs into trouble. Some would lie about it and never admit fault. Methodically addressed engine problems which always occur on any beast like this one and obviously prevailed. Big thumbs up she's a Beast!
Mate, you've built an absolute CERTIFIED RIPPER! I've been watching this build series from the start and finally seeing it go for a 'mild rip' has been hella fun!
Congratulations
Thanks for watching!
well Finn, if journalism doesn't work out i think you could make a good living importing packages of chemicals
Definitely sounds a lot happier (Mike AND the boat)
Stay well and stay safe ... Cheers!
The boat looks amazing from that shot up on the dock! Well done!
Somehow it's comforting to know that i am not the only person who goes to the lake, gets on the water for 15 minutes then goes home to fix the boat... Seemingly over and over.
Bruhh....this hit me hard lol
The best part about this comment.. youth talking about a boat and breaking, you have a jeep in your pic, so for your sake I hope you dont own a harley.. if so we might be related lol all 3 are money pits but yet so hard to let go of for some reason
You’re going to need to build a bigger lake
Coniston !

So happy to see u dialing it in man.. long time coming!
Hell ya! Congrats I know your happy with that. Hope to see this boat on the lake one day this year
"honey, where's the trash can??"
*Hastily throws the remnants behind the boat*
"No idea babe, haven't seen it!!"
"Honey, where's the beer cooler and the bed? Well, what was the point of spending all that money and doing all that work, without me?"

I got goosebumps from the sound alone
The sound of those spoolie boys is awesome. Nice to see you have a good rip.
Thank you.......Grand master Finnegan !........I learned more in the last 22 minutes than I did in high school ! Your Kung Fu is very....very good!
Finally! This is awesome!
The best thing about tuning a Jet Boat: Free water dyno!
That thing skared me sitting on the trailer. I kept flinching thinking it was gonna start. Guessing that passenger seat is retaining its original value! Awesome boat
The diverse tech info you provide from your RUclips channel is awesome man
wow, that gets up on plain like nobodys business, great to see it suckin the fuel back!!stay safe and take care man
Newf Ie
“Plane”!
@@shamuzoo When the front end rides up out of the water. "Hydroplane"
wibbledee Aaaaand you missed the point of his comment.
Jet drive thrust is up higher than from a propeller, so the boat goes forward instead of thrust trying to lift the bow up high on takeoff...
@@BuzzLOLOL Makes sense. There was an art to using the trim tabs right to get up to speed in the cabin cruiser we had.
When does the "Win a boat ride with Mike" contest start?
1GUNRUNNER looks scary fast.
This thing is awesome.
Big cube, hemi, and twins for the win!!!
Glad things are improving for you.
said in my English Accent "when you said ballistic shorts, i thought you were taking the piss"... Might have to borrow those for curry night :)
dont eat the spicy once... funny shit...
Ah, it is setup for the other way round...
Been looking forward to watching this boat let er eat fin!!
Such a beautiful sound can't think of anything better
Thanks Finnegan.. seriously Bro, keeping us entertained is big deal.. away from all this sad stuff, first engine I ever heard with full headers was 355 Olds in my Buddies Dad's Flat Bottom.. I was 10.. changed my Life.. Daily driver everyday and Everywhere 68 Dodge Dart..
There's what, 200k in that boat?
And the function of the toggle switches is written in sharpie!
Lol
Priorities. 😉
That's how you know it's fast, stickers and labels start weighing too much to add... so you use sharpie.
That's what I'm doing wrong! Damn sponsors stickers!
There's a little more then that with the turbos the intercooler the jet drive the trailer which is a hella lot that is a nice trailer and then the paint and the Holly EFI the throttle body fuel pump there are alot of good parts on this boat
"At a medium pace" somewhere Adam Sandler just sneezed
Shampoo bottles anyone?
@@jeffwalters8552 Call me an ugly woman
The video is nothing short of excellent!!!
Makes me smile. Big smiles.
Everybody: Hide under the bed for we need social distancing as the bug is coming for you!
Finnegan: Hold my Corona, then proceeds going up and down the river with a small spaceship that looks like a boat.
@Dave Micolichek I am building a winter garden for the summer, true story! :)
@Methods It pushes effortlessly and is very well balanced even at high speeds!
@Dave Micolichek At least compatible with social distancing from moronavirus
when you said "im gonna make my own" in reference to a drain pan, i fully expected you to start tiggin aluminum sheet.... womp womp
aint nobody got time for that. lol
@@FinnegansGarage would not have surprised me one bit! i'm the guy from texas that built the r/c Muscle Truck, you signed it Power tour '17
Wait tillits full of oil and you got to GET it out
You do notnusea metal crow bar on a crank that much i know and i am notnall that clever
That’s awesome Finn - you built your dream car and now you got your dream boat - she’s a beast - congrats!
What a fantastic boat!!! Awesome, the sound is sweet. God job!!!!!
Man on my lake when ya say quarantine that's where everybody goes lol
It's like that movie The Great Outdoors. "If you meet any friends bring em by and we'll give them a ride in Suck My Wake" lol
Done that before, had to swim and push against the tide, for about half a mile! We made it back after about an hour! 😁
I'm loving the 'game over' content!
When I was working for Industrial Light and Magic here in California, I was watching Arneson Industries testing there boats on the bay. Twin Turbine and speeds of 200+. What a show.
Yes sir!! When it's all dialed in, I believe your gonna need to carry toilet paper on board..
Good job gang! Sounds awesome
💪💪💪💪🚣♂️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
11:35 your ohm meter didn't measure anything because you had set it for 200 ohms max
Fuggin monster brother! Thats gotta be a surreal sensation when the boost comes in! Love it!
That thing is so badass. Very nice build!!
Haha! Quality! Saved from hours of Flip-flop paddling!
That's all Mike had!
Last time I clicked this fast the ‘55 Still had rust
Zac Larkby ok
Very kool video, SUPER kool boat & motor, fun day of testing, ;-), I ran outta fuel on my my 4th test run too, On the wolf river and without a paddle, good thing there's always a friendly fisherman around to pull me back to the dock,
So glad this boat stuff is almost over.. ready for some car and tow rig builds
Next upgrade: fuel gauge 😁
When ever you strip something down, and rebuild it, you ALWAYS have parts left over. We all know this, it's actually a law of nature.
In this case the part that was left over was the fuel gauge, it was left on the bench to maintain the laws of nature because we all know that this boat will most likely break every law of physics.
Vehicles like this You just assume it's always on empty because it is.
A whole new meaning of Finnegan's wake
Either that or a fuel tender .🤔
Been there done that. Had to paddle back to the cove for some more fuel.
I have a 71 Hondo and there is no fuel gauge
Thats just got to feel like an 800hp big block on a go cart
It makes 800hp without the turbos most likely. I don't have an analogy for what this would feel like.
go carts are more stable lol
They come off the line hard because the jet drive allows full RPMs/max HP at -0- MPH... but it also feels like clutch slippage...
That sounds like the next project big block go kart
You can walk back when you run out of fuel.
What a lovely little fishing boat !
You guys are in another league, be safe & have fun
Is that little oil filter enough for that engine nevermind I watched the rest I was about to suggest a remote mount if there wasn't enough room but ...
I was wondering why he doesn't have a magnet at least taped on the filter...?
5:10 Big problem with your band saw......There no more room for stickers on it, Time for a bigger one...lol
ha ha. ive started putting them on the sides and bottom.
Great to hear there were no problems with the engine ! Hope you will get to compete some this year ! She looks so good... quick too !
That GAME OVER boat is a spectacular sight!!
When you send your oil out for a oil analysis thay will tell you what metals are actually in the oil and it might narrow it down to what's wearing.you should try it just for a cool RUclips video.
Man, the way that thing flies over the water.... it just seems like the engine isn't even tryin'
That's because it wasn't doubt he even hit half throttle TBH
John Coldwell exactly. Can’t wait to see what it’ll do opened up
Those twin turbos sound nice, when spooling up, sounds great just idling
MAN! What a great sound she makes!!!!👍😁😊
Motor company: What do you want the power to weight ratio to be?
This guy: Yes.
"about 5 should do."
"5lbs per HP won't be that hard."
"NO NO NO, 5hp per pound"
"We're gonna need a bigger lake."
I could listen to that idle all day!
Hey daddio.. great to see your social distancing on point!! As a nurse, I do my fair share of “dont touch me!!”
I really enjoy your show.. wishing your and yours wonderful health and a great easter..
You’re show influenced my own special money pit of love!! A 98 TJ “stroked out” to a 4.6 with all sorts of crap i have no clue about 😉
Aiming for that “first jet drive GM in the 7’s”? I’ve heard a twin turbo setup can accomplish something similar to that...
Finnegans last Jet boat ran deep in the 7's at 141..... I now own that boat 👍😉
@@ryanveret4088 the fastest my v-drive has gone is 126 without a wing!!! To go faster it NEEDS one!! 10.5 out of 10 on the pucker scale!!....from Wyoming USA 🔫🤠🇺🇸p.s. stay safe and healthy everybody ❤
11:40 Don't get another multi meter man. You just said the bad wire is 230 ohms and your device is set for 200 Ohms max. Just put it on 2k Ohms
Indeed, I concur, it was just out of range,
Us electric guys ought not beat up an awesome content creator over a small detail like that...his theory and knowledge was on point thats all that matters. When i seen that i knew there would be a comment
Thats what i was going to say. Learn how to use your tools
@@williamstamper442 well stated William. It's not apparent viewing these comments this way when proper congratulations have been stated elsewhere, so thanks for this perspective
As someone who recently got an ultrasonic cleaner i can say that thing is _very_ useful. Cleaned everything from a string trimmer carb to coins and keys (it being pandemic and all) to a water filter manifold. Did learn one neat trick, too: if you need to clean something food-safe in a cleaner that was used for engine parts, put minimum water in the tub of the cleaner itself, then put your food-safe items in a plastic cup (empty sour cream containers work great) full of soapy water, then put that cup in the cleaner. Same goes for if you want to use a more potent cleaning fluid and don't want to fill the entire tub with it.
And as someone who got stranded on a boat due to carb bowl filling up with water (long story lol), with no backup power you should only go out as far as you are willing to paddle :)
Sounds amazing congratulations to you and your crew. If the only problem was running out of fuel things are good.
Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings lol
lmfao
@@FinnegansGarage 💯% Truth LOL
This reminds me of every wedding or anniversary party from the 90's.
@@MrStacy1974 LMAO
U dun scurred away awl da feesh
It would suck to fish out of, but would be fun to enter at least one tournament and put those bass boat guys in their place.
That sounds so sweet, very cool.
Question: How long till it gets on plane? Answer: 7 inches!
WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GET DAVID FRIBURGER IN GAME OVER
When he needs somebody to whine, bitch, n moan the whole video..
Awesome boat! Engine sounds sweet! Love jet boats, still kicking myself for selling mine. Nice work mate 🤘🤘
That’s awesome! I used to buy 3 packs of sunnies to keep in my boat from turning my head and off they go! Good to see “GAME OVER”!!!
Your not the first to run out off fuel and you will not be the last🤘😭
