Hey Mhale00

You posted some weeks ago that Arron at Absolute Marine in Havasu was going to install a Raylar kit in your 02 Heat 496 Mag Ho....Just wondering if you have gotten it done or not and If you did could you post some GPS Speeds please as I am thinking of adding the Raylar myself next winter

It's gotten kinda quiet on the HotBoat forum about this deal. Guess when they figured out their V hulls weren't gaining 17 mph it wasn't so exciting

I'm still thinking if your looking for 6-8 mph out of your V hull it's a very good solid package for the $$$
Just don't get fooled by all the "prop"aganda

New pistons and a Whipple would get you 12-13 possibly. Bob will get you taken care of and then if I can sweet talk my wife.......never mind

Boatingbent,
Still waiting for parts from raylar, but they should be in any day. and I am still excited about it. I added a gps speedo as I said I was, and the truth does hurt, ( 63 mph gps @ 5200 rpm, 24 prop. 2 people, half tanks and 1 cooler) but hey, I can live with it till I add the raylar kit and the next yr. move to a flame with twins. I will let you guys know the results of the raylar kit as soon as they are available.

Kewl Thanks for the update............Do you feel the 24P is the best for performance on your Boat????

Still waiting . Bent, I would suggest ordering now so you have it for the winter

Raylar has been awfully quiet lately.... When I spoke to him about buying his kit a couple of months ago,, he said he had everyting on the shelf for delivery ??? HMMMMM

Talked with him on Wednesday and he said they currently have 50 sets on the shelf?

(No that doesn't mean I ordered two )

Slacker LOL

We have been so damn busy lately we have not even had time to brag about our accomplishmts. We do have plenty of kits now avaialable and we have filled all the back orders, even the six kits to our German dealer and one to Saudi Arabia. We have built a few motors over thelast three months. Our latest pair, we call the Purple Monstas" They will be installed next month in a new 30 foot Shockwave with an awesome graphics job. We just got motors of the dyno. These are 496 motors not 540's or 572's. We ran them on the stock Mercury 496HO ecms with our special ebox piggy back programmers. We think the results were pretty damn impressive! 650 rpm idle, 540 ft/lbs torque at 2500rpms. 640ft/lbs of torque at 4200 rpms that stays at 630 ft./lbs all the way to 5000rpms. At 5100 rpms just before the 5150 soft rev-limiter we made 607HP! and the horsepower was showing no sign of leveling off there. As soon as we get the rev-limiter to 5400 to 5600 rpms with Dustins help we are pretty sure we will see 625HP, maybe slightly more. These motors have our forged steel cranks, H-beam billet rods and our Mahle forged pistons. The cam is our incredible BP106 grind and the motor is sporting our standard Bigpower aluminum heads, the "CoolGap" intake with our billet throttle bodies , headers and our standard kit parts. These motors were ready for delivery in six weeks after order so we feel good about our lead times. The really good news is we can put these babies together out the door for about $18,600.00 plus shipping with headers and larger oil cooler. All you need is your 496HO ECM ,accessories, brackets, wiring harness,cooling system and sensors. This pricing includes a core credit on your good short block, pan and dampner. Add in the labor for the changeout and you have a Mercury "guardian protected" 600HP naturally asspirated reliable stormin bull EFI motor. This oughta get some people pondering the cost of 600HP "blue motors" I would like to post a couple of pictures but I can't seem to get them small enough in size to go as attachments. So much for our silence, Its hard to be humble! Just kidd'in!
