Anyone done this 525EFI Stage 1 Performance Upgrade?
Looking for performance changes and opinions from some that have done this. Mid to larger twin engine boats. Hear it will wake them up in the mid range, looking for some real world, I spent the coin opinions. Thanks. |

We've done the upgrade on numerous 525's.
Eddie Thank You! Was hoping you would pick up on this. I am doing the top ends, Isky springs, 10 degree retainers, Crower stainless rockers, Cometic gaskets, your recipe to a "T". One question here if you would, Roller lifters? What would / do you use as replacements? Are the stockers ready at 300 hours? For what it's worth, I do believe many on here appreciate your comments and knowledge. I do. Thank You. |

You watch it there! I might just bolt a pair of them Wippletaters on this Fountain and come out there and whoop your Donzi azz, How are things? Hope all is well. Samantha says Hi! |

I've yet to run into a 525 that has needed lifters at 300 hours, unless the engine had serious issues. Honestly, if I were going to replace them, I would go right back with the GM lifters that came in it. You can buy just the lifters and reuse your original dog bones and spider, thus saving some money. That is an excellent lifter and is a perfect fit for that engine. There should be no reason to replace them at this point. You will be looking at a complete in the 550 hour area, so I would wait until then if they all look good now. Eddie |

How are things? Hope all is well. Samantha says Hi! Things are going well thanks. If you do decide to go the Whipple route I would highly recommend Eddie. He did the top end on my 525 and was very reasonably priced and great to deal with. Good thing I took it to him when I did because it was just about to grenade. Tell Sam that Lorrie and I said Hi. :) |

What can be done to the 500efi's to squeeze little more out of them?
