I remember riding on your Mistress, quite different. This hull runs best over 70mph, water permitting, anything under that takes a lot of adjustment and porpoise. How did those engines run? 72 you said? Wonder what the diff will be with your engines, how much HP diff? Those are bigger cubes, right? Cam change on current (j/k) How much did the Mistress weigh? What pitch props on the Konrads and what rpm did it pull to top end? Just curious as I was working on that drive setup before I changed everything.

for sure was better at 65 all day long... mistress is 12,800 on a Myco steel trailer no fuel, Myco says trailer is 2000 so who knows I would say mistress is 10,500 no fuel with gear on it.

This ran 72@4900 yesterday with 28 Bravo1 Harvey said best speed was 26 bravo1 75.8@5200 ever but propped to cruise it around

Yeah, was going to say you're in between a 26 & 28. Pretty good speeds for not running a higher RPM, if you could get to to 5500 RPM..... 80? .

I would think dialed in I will see 77-78... maybe 80 on the right day

So the cat is now out of the bag! Congrats on your new gun! Should be a lot of fun!
what is your expected speed with your 540 in ?

it sure I will think 77-78? Maybe 80 dialed in. No clue to be honest I didn't buy it to be fast, but for the purpose of overnighting every weekend

Congrats! I remember when that boat was painted (there's pics floating around OSO somewhere). You're gonna love that cabin! I've always said, best cabin in a performance boat in its class.

any clue on thread location? Year?

Cut the cabin out of it, speeds them up a bit.
