Well I have raced and owned a few LSX motors, and would love a pair in a boat....
Cam wise, depends if NA, or blown? you dont want them to die to much when you put thr boat into gear... so a decent idel is needed. but other then that, a nice 3-6500 cam would do great, with a strong TQ band.
I would nto go super big for a 7000 rom limit as thats ALOT on a motor let alone holding it for a while like you woul din a boat.... also wears out springs quick. but a torqey cam that peacks around 6k would be good

You do not want to spin a Bravo over 6,000 rpms
Here is a link to one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUr9s...feature=fvwrel
When I read the article(Hot Boat?), I am sure the engine was 100% stock.
Call Bob Mandra for a cam, I am sure he can help you out.

I agree. Consult Bob Madara of Marine Kinetics---he will get you dialed in on a cam profile for your cid, components, application, etc, etc. and any mods you're wanting to do. Bob is one of the good guys in this marine HP stuff and is at least worth a phone call.

Feel free to give me a ring if you'd like. I work with them all day everyday, Marine, street, trucks, road racing, drag racing... and have a few good options.
