Bang, Bang At 4500rpm
Finally took the boat out for its test run. 1st couldn't back it off the trailer it was sticking onrollers where the hook connects. then for got about tightening water hose on top of oil cooler, then 3hrs later I decide to go for broke and let her rip 
but before that I had hit 64mph at 4000rpm about 3/4 throttle gps so I THEN WENT TO CHASE DOWN BUDDY AND HIS GIRL SO I NAILED IT FROM 3000 RPM CLIMBING TO 5500RPMS BANG BANG ETC SO I will look on Tuesday to see if its a spring or rocker or smashed valve oh BUT THE 2'' SHORTIE WORKED GREAT FOR ME THE PICK UP IN SPEED 2500 AND UP WAS CRAZY FAST LAST YEAR THE 4 BLADE WAS TO DEEP and so I also got a flat on the way home on the trailer 
I got a call to day saying from the beach the boat sounds awesome until they head a bag but love those dry s/m pipes

Are you sure it was the motor, or could it have been the drive. I had the same thing happen to me (twice) and it turned out to be the drives (B1s)
