LOL .
Please no more projects !! That cuddy is never going to be light .. ever see how much crap women bring for a weekend? 10 outfits, 30 bikinis, hair dryers, straighteners, shower stuff, hair stuff .. times 2!!

I was actually not going for a speed number this year , I had given up on it just wanted to build a reliable set up with low boost and good safe tune.(or another "garbage motor" as Saris racing who are the best ever at everything ..coined all my builds)
Where ever the speed was I was going to be good with.
Then after break in and tuning I gave it some throttle and thing takes off like a rocket and hits 90mph with very little effort.
Then I got the bug again.

Iron heads , extension boxes and 5`s .
Weight in 2013

Aluminum heads, extension boxes and 6`s.
I thought for sure the diffence would be more with the 6 drives and transom assemblies.
weight 2023

Kid apache and some others said it would be too heavy with 6`s and the water would be up to my exhaust.. lol Good talk

I researched bsfc numbers when you estimated that. Not a precise estimate but gets you in the ballpark. The E85 mix certainly confuses it a bit too.
Are you just dumping a little E85 in your tank?

unless you meant 10 gal e85 and 34 gal e10 total? I get 27% for that.
