so the questions is : should I spend money on used Herrings and gain what for mph ? or look for a used pair of 600's ?
105mph would make me want to keep the boat for a couple more years ..

Your boat should be running 96+ no matter what with 525's. With Herings you should be at 98. Send the ecu's to Whipple to up the revlimiters and gain hp. You would be right around 100-101 but you would have to run 93 octane. The 600 boats run right aroun 100-102. Juiced up they'll run 105+ like Franks. Its alot cheaper than a re-power or whipples and you'll be right around 100. Plus the drives will still be ok.

Id say its a good boat rick besides the paint repairs that have to be done. Also under the 198K they're asking. The 39's are a great boat!!

If you look at the pics the areas arnt around the rub rail. I would say 185-190 would be a nice deal. A TG to a 39OL.....please......not even a competition!
