I have the blue motors so I think I would be safe tossing a set of whipples on. I would do a lot more research befor I did something like that. But from my understanding I have all forged internals. I have no idea what speed I could excspect from that.... I don't ask cuz I don't want to sit at night a think about how cool it would be.

Now back to our regular scheduled fight

Burg came out swinging in the first round... Landed a few good shots
But I'm giving the the last 3/4 of the round to ICDE .... Seems to be doing well with his combo quotes.

Blue motors still have cast pistons. I've done a few small block Whipples. Doing 4 N/A 6.2 builds right now. I'll post some results when done. I also dyno'd and tuned a couple of 6.2's last spring for a fellow OSO member. He had a small cam upgrade and intake swap, and made 400 hp. If your target is in the low to mid 400 range don't give up on the 6.2.

bobl - I would be interested in your dyno results. Also curious about what cam and intake were used. I know the 6.2s are rated 320 prop h.p. I wonder what the loss is from crankshaft h.p. to the prop on Bravo 1.

Damn... I was sure I had forged pistons.... Seems dumb that merc put all that work into this motor and put cast pistons on it

Bobl and I are working on a pretty aggressive 383 build for my Sunsation. We will let you guys know how it turns out!

I know better now! I think we would all be in a better mood if mptrimshop would just post up that other page on his browser!
