242 SS with singel 454 330 hp how fast?

242 SS vs 242 LS any performance difference?

Consider to buy a 1988 242 SS singel 454 330 hp

low 50's with the 330, no performance differance just depends on how you like the layouts for comfort SS to me is a nicer day boat for hanging out on it more cockpit room

The LS will be a few MPH faster because there is less weight forward. It will pull the bow out just a tad more than the SS will. I like the running attitude of the LS better too, it feels lighter the way it rides.

And Just How Would You Know That???

HI

Thanks for the reply. Regarding the is it not possible to adujust this by using the powertrim??

What is the perfect engine for theese boats, 50 - 53 miles
is not very fast actually *S*

my 242ls ran 57 all the time with the mag, 59.8 oncewho knows maybe it did go 60 once but them marks were when I had gps

57 - 60 not bad, how many hp is the 454 magnum?

I had a 1987 26 Scarab exel with 350 magnum it went 54
it was 270 hp at that time. The Scarab hull is lighter and faster maybe.

the 242 is a heavy boat, hp on a mag is 365hp

Had a 242 than a 292ls. Both great boats but not the fastest.

I got a guy...........
