Also, I was told mine (1995) was the first one that formula installed the 525sc's in. It has boost gages in the engine bay, they said they used them for the shakedown run with my boat, which was used for their brochure, and also a trail in Powerboat mag.
the follwing 525sc boats did not have boost gages installed ( bay or cockpit)

just curious about yours being a 94

Rambunctious, what props are you running and which ones have you tried. have you tried hydromotives at all?

Ron

they are bravos 24's, lab finished by mercury.
I jsut had them scanned and the cups were dialed in some

FYI , your boat was another one I was going to look at if this one hadn't panned out. 336 with bulldogs, right?

do you have 1.5 or 1.36 ratio?

I may take some cup out and get teh r's clsoer to 5200 and see if ther is more top end.....

I want to have one cool air run first before i do anything else
this last run was literally 90+ degrees with 5 on board and pretty smooth water.




before spending a ton on new props I might consider imco shorties. the local formula expert says they really make the 336 scoot
i would like to try various props for free or a small fee though

The review in powerboat mag raved about the 336 with blowers. Said it was one of the best balanced boats they tested or something to that effect.

Centerfield,

32velocity is correct on some facts. The boat is a 1994 336 with 502's and is called ASSASIN. It is having a survey done on Tuesday, 09/25 by a potential buyer, the dealer said it looks like it is gone. I took some outside pictures and will try to attach them.

The dealer is sticking to his selling because of medical issues story and claims to not know any more regarding the history. If still interested, I will check back with him next week.
