I was more inquiring about how you had the ballast configured with 2k. The newer VLX has a 100" beam maybe this requires more weight?

Rubrail is in the water? Do you feel safe driving like this?

Yeah but the centrifugal force would keep the oil at the bottom of the pan and the sump covered.

How the heck should I know? Just pointing out that they have a specific engine now and it is the base engine for Supra. I cant see how it would hurt to have an extra couple of quarts of oil and better

the other difference between an upside down jeep and a listed boat is that the boat is under maximum load while listed, while I doubt the jeep is (unless you are doing loops inside a giant full-pipe?)

Ok 450 bow, 450 floor, 750 rear locker, 300 under seats.

Rear corner rub rail is in the water or close. Not over. Most of my usual crew including my wife have no problem driving like these but I don't ever let a beginner take the wheel.
