Just wondering with 496's what this boat would run with a normal load.
What is it worth with 496's? Looks nice, I like the dash layout, and silver paint.

Never heard about a rebuild schedule with 250 hr's for top end. Isn't that the 525 and 600's? They'll last for well over a 1000 hr's if taken care of, and left alone. Oil, impeller, filters, belts, proper storage ect. and you are good to go.

Sorry that is what I meant, they DON'T need the top end done at 250 like a 525. 1000 hours,,,,,,,, that is getting close to egg beaters. Wow, that would be nice.
But I wonder how bad having 496's would hurt resale.

I would say, in that case yes. But I've seen them run 91-93 with 525EFI's. I've also seen performance reports with 95-96 numbers. I honestly don't think it's far off.
