We go to loto a few time's a year & ride's are always free. I should have bought the 30's but since I have not sold my other boat I did'nt what to push it with the boss. lol.
I don't know the guy but I do have a hard time believing that it would run mid 80's with 502 mags. That is right where my boat runs with HP500EFI's.Are they stock?
But we'll have to wait for this summer.

My 502's won't even turn a 30" prop.
I lost speed when I tried some 28's.

Stock 502's Gill exhaust. He told me they got mid 80's once with the 30's than they sent them back to BBlades for some reason & were only seeing low 80's. I do like the way the 28's work on the boat, low on fuel it will work it's way up to high 70's.

Keep your tabs at 3 or what ever is straight with the bottom of the boat

no walk and no loss in speed

Tabs were not working, as we speek removing cast iron putting stainless marine manafolds on removing y pipes should help also all new cables, upping the timing a bit. Just had it survayed for insurance. what insurance do you use.

State farm, I don't think they will write anything in FL if memory serves me right.

We have everything with them, house, truck, cars, motorcycle, makes it a bit cheaper.

Will you be running the boat in the gulf or Atlantic?
