hey baywatch
i have the same set up on my 36 apache leave it alone take it from me i had so much fun with the 502efi and really easy to maintane just remember to have the injectors check after each 100hrs.
for the best set up for you would be wait to kill those engines and go with a pair of 496 with cmi headers and change the prop

good luck if ever in new jersey look me up
36 apache (savage)
41 apache (tatonka)

I might have to take a trip to Jersey just to get a ride in Tatonka.. That is one beautiful machine.

If you ever find yourself at LOTO you are more than welcome to hop in with us as well.

Mark, that boat should sell in a heartbeat!!!

Mid 90's?? I thought it ran low 90's with the 800's and mid 80's w/ the NA 700's? Still impressive either way for an ole resin bucket!

Horsepower divided by weight equals then square root that sum then multiply by 250 equals multiplied by .88 should give you a fairly accurate speed
