Randy, I told you months ago I've tested with the 525s at lakeX and we only saw 3.5 mph. Didnt know what the wieght limit was going to be at the time so we tested with an extra 250lbs and the best we saw was 1-1.5mph on GPS. Like i've said earlier alot of money for 1mph.Another thing you need to think about is that you will loose a lot of excelleration,and I think that is more important then the 1mph. gain.I dont know what the differance will be with 350 but I'll find out tomorrow.Thats of huge amount of wieght for boats like ours to care.

Now you know how I feel, its not fun racing w/350lbs added to your boat. The best answer I got from the APBA was buy another boat. Is this added to the EFI weight or to the base Carb Weight?
