My performace report states 77 as top speed with the 365hp 454's. I am currently seeing just under 70, 69.8 to be exact. I do not think this boat would do 80 with these engines, even new.

Sea-dated, I dont have the mags, only the 330's So ill be seeing even less. The owner claims he's seen 72 in ideal conditions but says around 65-68 is more "average" Its running the factory 25 pitch counter quicksilvers on Bravos with nosecones. Are they factory?

Also, has anyone weighed there 88/89/90 27'/29' loa fever w/ BB or SB's on a trailer. I've seen so many different rating and I'm not to sure what to do. I have a 06' Trailblazer SS with a 6800 lb capacity, and I'm wondering if its ok for short (under 10 miles) trips.

I do not know how much mine ways but it is a a$$ heavy with the big blocks. I tried using an 8000lb lift and broke it in the back. I am now using a 10,000lb lift with no problems.
