27 profile
 

I am familiar with profiles, but not sure of their ride, etc. I am assuming they are a quality boat. Have been looking at 24 panteras, and have recently decided to look at 27 fountains, 25 sunsations, etc. There is a 1996 27 profile in my area, and am wondering if I should take a look. It is a 75+ MPH boat. Has a 454 with a 250 blower on it.

Other question is whether I am looking for trouble with a blower. Would just like to have an HP 500. Any issues with a blower moter. How is gas usage with a blower motor? From pics, boat looks clean. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. They are asking $40,000.00.

:rolleyes:

They our a small builder I have seen some past post on the board do a search, and don't forget the survey. I think 40 is high.

My friend has a '94 29 Profile. It's a BIG 29, it rides pretty good. He has approx. 800 HP and it runs in the low 80's. The quality is mediocre at best.

Are you running your wedged heads on this engine Jim?

Re: 27 profile
 

WELLLLLLLLLLLLLL.............no. I had some Dart Big M heads a few years ago with wedges and a blower. When I switched from blower to the tunnel ram I changed the heads to pro one's

If that's the one in Cornelius (sp), it seems like it has been for sale for a while...
