super chillers?
 
I have a bone stock 1997 29' Fever with a 525SC. Are the super chillers worth it? Is the only difference between a 525SC and a 600SC the intercooler?

525SC is a 454, the 600SC is a 502

And welcome aboard

I'd say 75 HP.

Saw it done on a 47 Fountain and it just made more noise.
I wouldn't waste my time with dropin one under that blower...It would take too much to push it through, your better off with an 8-71 @ 7psi. and a MSD ignition all in by 2500, it will throttle like a monster.

Are you sure there is enough clearance below the hatch to allow a chiller?

USA1 FOUNTAIN, IS YOUR BOAT A 29'?

US1 Fountain 12-28-2003 03:08 PM

'99 32'.

Back to the hatch clearance issue.......

I had a '94 27' with a blower and only had an inch or 2 clearance with no chiller. A speed shop guy I used had a '97 or '98 27 Fever with same blower setup as me and he had to build the hatch up 2" to clear the arrestor. The newer yrs have the motors mounted higher, so I expect you may have the same issues???

intercooler cools the air off going into the intake so that allows you make more boost and motor last longer but then you start having drive problems.
so is it worth it
i have a 29 and built a 1,000 hp motor and blow three drive the first three times i took it out never made it back to the trailer with a big motor i even blow a imco sc so i took the blower off and now have 650hp motor the blower set up with intercooler is in the classifieds for sale cheap
hope this help
