Time to Re-power the Powerplay
 
I had the boat out on Saturday and went from Mission Bay to San Diego Bay. I was running 84mph on GPS, the boat seemed to be running great--until I stopped and was idleing through the bay and the engine alarm went off when the port motor shut off. It didn't sound good! sh*t happens!! :blaster:

I thought the motors were rebuilt about 3 yrs ago, I was wrong. The motors had 715 hours on them with the "top end" refreshed about 3 yrs ago. That's alot of boating hours!! I am going to repower the HP500's (carb motors) and keep them naturally aspirated about 625-650hp range. I am hoping to be running over 90mph with the new motors.

I am looking for suggestions for engine builders on the West Coast (more geographically desirable for me) I already know about Teague and Pfaff. Let me know about good/bad experiences with these builders. Any info would gladly be appreciated.

If you are interested in a good San Diego shop, talk to Bob at ESI Racing Engines (619)229-7651 on Misson Gorge road. Tell Bob I told you to call. Visit his shop and talk to his people and look at his work. He might be a great local engine shop for you.
