My pump looks alot like this one http://www.cpperformance.com/p-14668...-sea-pump.aspx.

It only runs that after or during a WOT normal running it goes down to 180. I might have to drag the boat home from the storage place at the lake to have a better look. I figured that was way to hot.

As for being rich I set the FMU at the fuel pressure that procharger spec'd.

This is the brand of water pump that is on it http://www.partshp.com/WaterPumps.htm. I have never heard of running a electric water pump on something that is going to be ran for more then a few minutes at a time. Is this common on this type of set up?

180 is still to hot !!!!! As was said it's not a drag car , mine run's at 120 to130. I watch the oil temps alot more than the water temp. 180 to 230 will kill an engine in no time !

Run's around 200 cruising , being 3 to 3500 and goes as high as 230 after a really hard run but cool's out quickly once I'm back cruising.

You are way to Hot if the temp gauge is correct. Need to install a crossover and get the temps down. You are lucky the motor has not detonatated apart already with those temps..

Im going to pull the thermostat housing tomorrow and make sure there is no thermostat in there. I'm going to test the electric pump and make sure that it is at least working until I can get a cross over kit, season is almost over here. Could it be that the water is moving to fast and not allowing heat transfer?

Dont completely remove the thermostat,,i though you said you have efi?? if you remove it and the ecm is tuned for a differant trmp then its going to run really rich..If your going to remove the t-stat gut the center and put it back in..

i will be running 140* in mine with 3 3/16'''holes drilled in it with a circulation pump,i also wont have water running through the coolers at idle only on plane through the transom mount pickups,this way the engines wont load up while idling.
