Laz thats a lot of time playing on a flow bench .That Porting gets old after awhile
Good luck

Re: This weeks Mesa Project 670 hp
After some bugs that needed worked out with this engine and our boat, we thought we were finally ready to post how really happy we were with this motor. Not as fast as everyone had predicted - 70.4 GPS in our Baja 272. BUT, exactly one month to the day after Laz's warranty ran out, we had a lifter fail which wiped out the cam. Not sure yet what other damage there is. Only 29.1 hours on the motor.

Have you tryed a 3 blade 25 or 27 mirage with your stock drive height my baja ran better with the 3 blade. you should be getting 73 to 74 out of it. with over 600hp

I lost a lifter in the middle of the summer as well...but I was blessed enough that it didn't do any damage to the cam or any further damage than just the lifters themselves. Otherwise it could have been much worse! I was using the high grade Comp Cams lifters, but replaced them with the Morel lifters.
