Deepv29 I had a 85 302sr1 all stock I used a Hydromotive Terminator 24 pitch 4 blades , loved the props it was a whole different boat, jumped out of the water, handled better 62 on gps

Does anyone have the performance sheet for the 1988 242LS?

For the newer stuff, boattest.com has a lot of data. All you have to do is Register your email and you get all specs and data from the tests they perform. I found it very helpful.

x2. That would be awesome to see the factory specs. Many of the older boats have switched hands a time or two by now and some upgrades along they way or engines getting tired may have slowed them down. The factory specs gives you a clear picture of where it needs to be. Thanks for digging these up!

Fischan did you mean to post that reply?

I am still looking for the 1988 242LS performance specs.?

He has the '89 292 data posted, unless you're running 502's the data will be the same

89 would be fine ... 365 Mags :+) .... anyone have the 292 sheets?

In response to the 1986 or 1987 specs shown at the beginning of this thread. When you see an F206, F233, or F242LS with the 350 mag and "perf" designation, it does not indicate a different engine. In 1987,1988,and1989 there was a performance package option on single engine boats. It was an upgrade to a 21" cleaver prop, and most importantly, a 2" higher X dimension when the drive is rigged into the boat at the factory. Made a big difference on my 1987 F206LS. In 1987, the factory would not install any bigger engine than the 350 mag, 270 HP in an F206. I'm not sure how they handled the F233 and F242. It wasn't until 1988 or 1989 that they allowed the 320 EFI to be installed in an F206. I went to the factory in the fall of 1986 to beg them for a big block or at least the 320EFI or Tempest in my factory ordered 1987 F206. No dice, product liability concerns. Great factory tour though. Cool to see the crated KAAMA engine packages sitting in the cage along the outside of the assembly floor. My F206 was delivered in February 1987 with a 350 mag and performance package.
