got 93.2! still at around 6200 so i may add a little more pitch. i want to keep it on the high end of the range so i can use the same prop when im loaded with people and gas.
today i had between 1/2 and 3/4 tank
i attempted a vid while i was driving and it didnt go too well lol you can still see it passing 92 though

im not too worried. you can run an eagle stroker over 6000rpm blowing it up.. but i dont plan on keeping the set up at that engine speed for general engine/valvetrain life. i wish i had the dyno sheet so i could see where peak power is. its most likely 56-5800. id like to prop it at 6000 in this cool weather so it will be at 5800 when its warmer and loaded with people. i need to start doing some work to a 30P bravo one

Hi guys,, My 2001 27' which sold to jdub and now to team goumada? Ran 108 w/naturally aspirated 598. never dynoed but assume it was 800hp. Tried many props and drive heights in the nine years I owned it. Bravo 1 labbed 32" @6200 running 2 3/4" below the bottom was the best combo I found and gave me the 108 on GPS. Boat was so consistent we used it to test other engines to see how they compared. It truly was a water based dyno! Best of luck and be safe!

Hi Ray, Yes it,s Holden.That's a really nice engine Ron had. I'm sure he'll be very happy with it. Sorry but I don't have a 30" bravo one at the moment but judging by your #'s your ready for one! Have fun.

Mine supposedly had 800hp when i bought it in 08. I ran a best of 102mph with it, but the PO said he had seen 106mph. Dont know where that extra 4mph was hiding, but I never found it.
After the rebuild I have seen a best GPS speed of 97.5mph. Non dynoed and not even really dialed in with either the carb or the prop. I am guessing that I am around 725hp. I have probably gone faster with a different prop that I broke, but my GPS speedo wasnt working all summer so I can not verify that. I am installing A/F sensor and EGT bungs as we speak, so the engine will be dialed in this summer.
They seem to run right around 90 with about 625hp, Powerboat tested one with a stock 525efi at just over 80mph.
You will pick up a ton of speed just by getting some people out of the boat. I pick up a solid 4-5mph from a full tank to an empty tank.
