Title: Prowler Project
Post by: Mark Slaney on July 23, 2012, 05:50:31 pm

  Took the plunge and stripped the prowler down for a re-vamp.

  Top half of engine was stripped down, new head gasket, valves, new starter motor, new carb.

  24 urai roots blower was upgraded to a 33 urai roots blower.

  Frame powder coated.

  All new exhaust system, gone are the flimsy pipe work and replaced with a steel system.

  Pump serviced.

  A few other minor adjustments.

 Rather pleased with the result.

 I know Dave, it was what they were running at the time so got it done cheaper.  ;)

 Rab cost was around 3k including the purchase of the prowler.

Sweet as  ;D I think the green looks kool  8)
I fancy getting mines done, if I could find someone to take it apart
and put it back together again at a cost that would be worth doing.

Never seen a prowler in the flesh so i have a question.  The metal piping on top....is that just exhaust or for the heat exchanger?  If it for the heat exchanger then i would wrap the pipe with exhaust wrap and also the exhaust from the engine.  You will get much better heat and more constant higher water temps.

BTW Machine looks great.
