Looks like I see my old saber there? Was a fun boat... BTW that's good to know regarding your boat speed. I've been all over the place with my builds and just may start out NA 548-565's near your hp and blowers or whipples down the road. I'd like tall deck 598' NA's and forget the blowers however not sure I have enough room. I only have 33 1/2" c to c. Curious what your center to center is? I like to run long distance and blowers have a tendency to suck your wallet right out of your pocket but who knows. Got a lot on my plate right now.

Mines an 86’ with fresh 496/550s and has been 75 several times light on fuel. 72 all day long full of fuel and gear.

if anyone with tall decks and stellings please let me know your center to center. I'd love to build a couple of 598's.
