I used all-thread rod on my two MPI's with converted Gen5 FA's as well, I didn't use paper gaskets though and used RTV. My TB's were bored out by TPiS (that was a whole different story) and couldn't...

Just goes to show there is ZERO entry level in this sport anymore. Even the 10 year old used boats are ridiculous. I just can't fathom/justify paying 220k for a 22' boat with 5 basic seats. Take...

Don't give up on the MPI intake, it can actually support more HP than the 500/525 style. MPI will make more torque than anything on the market but won't go much past 5600 rpm for peak power....
