We make power without it

my last set came out with 144 hrs on them and no issues..I'm not known for being the easiest on a set

You're one of the few that runs their boat hard at a lot of poker runs. You , AJ , 44 MTI and a few others need to race to Bimini and back for fun!! It gets the adrenalin going and we could start smack talking for three or four months before the race. I did it last year and the set up is great!! Great use for a offshore boat!!! I'm in if you guys are. We can make party out of it!!!!

I saw Ateco in a recent engines write up called "The 700 Club" in PB mag. They had the best pricing by far over other engine builders. Had basic carb offerings which I am a big fan of for boat motors. Less electronics to go wrong the better in my book.
