The best thing about of this is the torque RPMs are perfect. At 3300 I'm running 59.9 MPH. What a cursing speed. Not bad when a 32' boat with 5 people and a cooler full of beer can ride around at 60 MPH all day long and not hurt anything at all.

Last but not least is the fuel I'm burning. I haven't ran a gallon per hour gauge on my motors but they are burning maybe half the fuel my stock motors used. What used to take a 100 to 110 gallons of gas I can run now with between 50 to 60 gallons of gas.

I just want to close this thread out by saying My Potter Power Plants are way more than I expected them to be. If I had this project to do over again I would do it all the same. I have nothing but praise for the gang at Potter Performance. I would recommend them to anyone that needs any work to a performance boat. Just like my motors they went way way out past my expectation on this build. Thank You So Much Ron Potter for everything..
