502 v 454 v 6.2 v 7.4 on Enticer?
Any practical differences with twins on a PQ 29 Enticer?

I'd agree with boatnt, 330 hp 7.4's or 454 mags are the perfect motors for that boat.

502's too much for the hull ? NOT ! The 502 mag is a much better motor than the 454 and really not much more on the top end at that point, sorry but 502 Mag's would be my choice.

we are talking about what the hull can handle,not whats a better engine
I have owned 3 290s and have plenty of friends with
290s,trust me its a great boat but 502s are too much!!!

502 get tired before the others ? you are kidding right ? I have run the 502's since 91 and love them, would not give them up unless of course you step up to the blue motors.
