Have you tried the 26r and let er spin a little? Very inspirational since I'm stuck in the 60's for now until i grow more cubes. Good Luck, Chris

(Point of view from the extra ballast. Always enjoy going out with you guys.)
After long awaited anticipation and speculation of the motor's true HP, the old Pantera made a quick run around Long Beach. The motor is HEALTHY and the dry exhaust is LOUD. The poor IMCO tried diligently to swing a labbed 32P left playing tug-of-war against the torque of the motor. Matty and I leaned heavily on the passanger side to counter balance the boat and keep her level. Taching out @ 5050RPM , we stayed between 70-71MPH for the 8 mile loop. Most impressive was the midrange acceleration from 3800-4800RPM across the 1-2 foot chop.
Next run will be with a 26P right which should help with the balance of the boat, as well as turning the motor UP to it's peak HP of 5700RPM, but not exceed the 6000RPM thresh hold.
Excellent work to Mobile Marine of HB. Matt does great rigging work and is a blast to hang with. Big smiles to your customer service.

So I checked my dyno sheet... I'm giving up 110 hp between 5,000 and 5,700. So there ya go. 
Still working on posting the little video clips and the finished engine compartment photos... I feel like a monkey trying to F a football when it comes to this computer crap!

I'm guessing a 28" Bravo is gonna be the prop. The 26" is mildly labbed and has added rake and cup so it spins real close to the same rpms as a stock one.

Scott, you're the only dude I know who sleeps less than I do!
Ok, so video quality is horrifying, but you get the idea...
