we hit 80 on gps with the aluminum heads and 525 cams on my friends 311,he talked to a ton of people about propping and was told by everyone that the 4 blade would not help top end,the boat had no problem planing at all,even with 6 people and lots of fuel.
My friend is very good with research and tried alot of different things also,he just figured he would buy a fast-tech with blowers instead!!!

80 is very impressive in a 311, takes some serious power to get there, hats off....
I think I remember reading in here somewhere that the difference between salt and fresh water can be up to 3 mph but trusting my memory is a questionable issue...
