i would rather have 350 mags over 310 hp 454s.10 hp less per motor and app 150 lbs liter,do the math,but no mater what engines,the 26 nova is a good low buck boat.i once had a 27 foot v hull,single engine,it was a real mut till i put a 800 hp 509 sc engine in it.it was a lot of fun at 85 mph.

That was my thought too.....I've got 32' with my Sunny with an 8' beam and you wanna talk tight...I need Vasaline and a shoe horn to change the oil!! I'm not hugely familiar with the layout on the Nova's.....but twin BBC's is gonna be tight.

yes twins will be tight but twins is much easier when it comes to docking and if your out and break something you can still get back home on the other engine your fuel wont be much more if not less depending on how you run the boat. other costs will be more granted there are 2 instead of one. i would go with the bigblocks they are more desirable when you go to sell in the future and should get better milage at the same speed as the smallblocks and they wont have to work as hard so they should last longer
