-990 heads 2.19 1.88 118 cc mild porting
-Merlin single plane
-Holley 9022 800 cfm

I'm going to take a shot here based on experience. I had the same boat a few years back. Your boat is light and a very efficient design on the bottom. Based on calculations I would say you are running approx 77-78MPH on GPS if you have a labbed prop.

How much prop slippage do you think you have?

Its not a´labbed prop so based on last year I was swinging a´23 mirage plus( With less HP) i calculated 10-12 % does that sound right?
I had the boat on weight just before testing and it was 4350 with full tank. 60 Gallon. Then add 190 to the driver. Testing weight 4540

if your tac is accurate and your slip is 10% then your speed is 73.86 mph.

your HP is probably not more than 465 in the 5200 rpm range, chev ZL-1 aluminum heads 12.5 :1 and maybe not quite the cam you have produced these numbers on dyno, the really high hp in the 550 to 710 ranges were in the 6000 to 7600 rpm ranges.

torque is also in the 450 - 475 ft # area

Crank or propshaft HP?

I was told that the Z-cam hyd roller profile 139011 that should be identical with the old #139731 would give me at least 550 ft @4500 RPM and 525 crank HP + at 5500 RPM Was that a dream?
The cam works in 2500-5500 RPM range so Du you think I will gain more HP if I rum 6000+ rpm?
