They have tried smaller props they put on a pair of 24 4 blade props and it still climbed slowly in rpms not sure what it got up to in rpms but they said there is a problem. You can feel the boat fall forward when you get it up to speed around 70 mph and when you push the throttles past that point that when you feel the boat fall forward it like it looses some power I think it must be in the computer program thats the only thing I can come up with

New heads you said ? What kind ?
Different valves you said ? What length ?
What springs ? What installed height ? (thus length question also)
-----------------------------
Are motors grounded properly to batteries ? Any grounds not reinstalled during engine builds ?
Voltage proper to ignition coil and ECU ? Does voltage drop at all on your gauge at this suspect rpm ?
Did you verify SC belt tension ?
==================
Bravo Drives I expect ? What mph are you at when tach is at this rpm fuss point ?
