Default Stock HP's in 1983 Fountain 10meter

What was stock HP's in 1983 for the 10m. Executioner? I have a chance to buy some 454's at 330HP. Is that enough for a weekend cruiser? Thanks Harry

you could get 330's, 370's, 400's, 420's or bigger. With 330's I don't know if you will be happy with them. They usually run good, but will only push the boat to the high 60's. When I bought my 10M the motors were about 420 hp, and it only did 72mph.

Don't buy 330's they are junk and will hurt resale if you plan to resell! At the minimium you need 454 mags, I would find some used 500 carbs if it were me. 330's are 330's not much you can do to them if you want to go faster, I doubt they would push that boat in the mid 60's.
