Bullet #1 fresh off the dyno. On Nice N Easy non ethanol 91 pump gas she made 673.3 HP @ 5800. I am happy as a clam because when we planned this build out I told Bob I wante 675 hp pump gas motors. Just gotta repeat with the other two and good to go! Special thanks to Jim Bersani @ JBE for the assembly/tuning and to Bob Madera/Marine Kinetics for the package. Timing was at 34 degrees. I don't have the torque or bsfc numbers in front of me as the sheets are still at the dyno. Bullet #2 is going on the pump today and bullet #3 either Saturday or Monday.

That's if those other tired motors were even making 500 apiece. The center motor never even had a timing tab on it so who knows how or if they ever timed it or where it was at. The port motor had a stuck lifter and a flat cam lobe and the starboard motor had a weeping head gasket. I think this big barge should crack 90 now. It ran 83-84 before.

Good to see your happy and may the boat make you happy when put back in.
I think this may be the winner, and please notice I 'liked' this post way back then.
LOL.

If you can't go over, wouldn't the guy that guessed 668 in post #25 be the winner? If you can go over, the mayor guessed 675 in post #40.
