I'll have to have a talk with Ben about that . His boat should have Lombardi trophies etched in every blade of the props on the Arnesons' .

there is not a single part of your 588 ci engine that ever came out of or went into a nascar engine...

there is a guy on lateral g site building an nascar engine using all second hand parts from nascar teams, it is a small block chevy sb2 engine.. under 400ci making 780hp... now tell me again that your 588 ci engine is a nascar engine. roflmfao

the heads, cam, intakes, and thousands of hours of dyno time and porting is where all that hp comes from... just cuz some guy built some nascar engines, does mean any of that ridiculously expensive r&d time went into your 588ci bbc combo so stop kidding yourself
Dude, read my post......it's a joke.

Hold on there for a minute! Just because it has Bravos don't assume it is a slow turd....There is a guy on by us that surprises a lot of hot boats with his bravos. Now with that said I know they are Junk. All I'm sayin is don't assume! I think Smitty aka Articfriends is pushing a lot of HP thru his unit.

i saw ur post after reading the first... its all good.

i just get tired of hearing a lot of d bags talking nascar crap... i also know guys that bought from nascar teams as they are constantly selling stuff when they change their combinations, and they are making a ton of hp with those small blocks...

Hey easy now. Just cause a guy wins championships off of throwing bloopers... It's the end result that really counts.

We have a 255 Talon, with a Victory Marine 572, 680HP on the dyno. I'm interested to see your speeds, and what props you run. I run a 28" Labbed Bravo1, want to try a 30" labbed, with the diffuser rimg cut off? Can you post some pics of your Talon?
