I was driving down a shallow river, about 1ft, then the bottom dropped out. Drained the crank case soon as we got it home, 3 gallons of clear water came out before any oil did. shot water 10ft out the spark plug holes this morning turning it over. That's about as far as I got. Need to refill with oil, put new plugs in, and dry out the distributor before I can attempt to fire it up. Hoping everything is okay. I am going to install a kill switch ASAP in case this happens again. I don't think I hydro'd it, but it could have. Worst case scenario I find a good used 4.0 bottom end to throw in it. Not gonna rebuild the stroker again, I already have built it twice.
