Great post. Keep it up.

Im excited to see what your boat runs too. I like the 30-33' step boats for making a real hot rod.

You're definitely on the right track about RPMs and operating range.

Gonna run the low compression until you get bored then boost them?

Curious to see differences, I can say one thing... my Brodix intakes are WAY nicer then the pro comps, I wish I upgraded them at the time, was told back then by many it would not matter... after doing what I have now I think I will see good results... more cam, more compression, heads dialed in, things port matched and heads ported with accurate flow numbers... in almost excited to see results ...

Well, were only starting, i have a hard time believing it takes 6 or 8 jet sizes difference side to side to get afrs somewhat close w a 1" spacer vd 3" being okay square jetted. If this is true when i add 2 more inches under dominator the side jetted up should immediately go fat. I will NEVER even be running a carb on my boat but now i have to know the answer, ill run this fvker till its wore out to find out!

Damn.

Per our convo, I did look up the pan used on the 6200rpm 565 (4.375 stroke) that saw no oil psi issues and it is not the one you have, it was the #18-302

Thats a nasty ass looking intake, my speedmaster looked muvh better box stock. I have a pic of it in my previous pics on here but i never figured out how to post them using phone . It says to click and drag but it only works on my home computer, i took a pic of it modified yesterday but thats with my old phone and havent got them transferred over yet
