can anyone tell me top speed and fuel usage on a 02 312 with 6.2's. found one locally i am going to look at but curious on top speed and fuel usage with smaller cubic inch motors in a large boat like this.

Thats a sharp boat if its the one I'm thinking not sure on the usage,

Boat was very nice..but just not sold on 6.2's on a 312. Really want a consistent 70MPH boat and think 496's is the only way to get to this. Searching for a 2000-03 312 with twin big blocks and preferably 496's. Cabin has enough room for us..just need more power. Keep your eyes open for clean 312's with big blocks!

theres one on detroit craigs and onevon bt with 5o2's

I talked to the guy in MI with the red, white and blue 03 312 with 496's on Craigslist. Sounds like a nice boat but no trailer. Is that the one you are referring to?

I believe so,

That's my buddy's boat. He's got Lake Cumberland Marine to list it for him. I'm pretty sure you could deal with him directly and get it cheaper (get rid of their mark up).

Boat is in excellent condition. Let me know if you want his contact info directly.

I am really being picky on my next boat. Has to be a 312 Fastech from 2000-2003 range and have 502's or 496's and good colors. Looked at one Sunday locally that had gorgeous colors but twin 6.2's. Just think 640HP total with a 8,000 lb boat is not a good combo and if i need to sell down the road will be tougher sell.

Found a 03 312 with twin 496Mags and nice colors (red, white, blue daytona package) in MI on CL. Going to try an look at it in next 1-2 weeks.

Really like the room of the 312 and obvious build quality...looking at a Baja 302 Boss this weekend to compare room as well.

Thanks for the leads though...my other requirement is stock power. No modified motors unless they are Merc Blue HP's!
