Re: First Run with new power
Actually if you go into the setup menu on your GPS, there probably is an option for "units" or something similiar. Right now it's probably set to "Nautical". Change that setting to "Statute" or "Standard".
A ride would be cool still though

Re: First Run with new power
No, actually I prefer a mechanical fuel pump. I run one on my NA 598 pushing 800 ish HP and it does fine. I bought the boat and it had an M140 Mallory, which I also use for priming and when running hard I run both. It is good to see you pushing 1000+ HP and the mechanical pump being adequate.
