BTW, The SB550 weighs 543 lbs.; what's a 350mag/MPI weigh?? 600-650lbs.??
It would be a sweet package for sure, but I don't think you would get those speeds and the cost whould be outa this world and so not worth it. Like OC. said 33 with 496HO's would be better and cheaper all they way around. Think what the ins. would be with a 28 w/ that much HP. 33 496 the way to go........... WELL SOMEBODY PLEASE BUILD MY DREAM BOAT

Question 525 vs. 550sb - torque?

My thoughts too; better for the 28....what is the ft./lbs.of torque on the 525's? I think the 550 Raylar is 570 lb.ft.

After running mine with 525's for the 3rd season, I can honestly say that if I had put 496's in it, I would have made a BIG mistake.

The boat is the perfect package with 525's.
