hey I got a Queston for all, for the winter blues , ok how much fuel will my 572 blown 1071 motor use per hour running 3500 to 4000 rpm. Right now my saber has a new 90gal tank and if I run easy 60 to 70 cruising whats a thought of mpg. I think 40 per hour. the way its set up now it can run 93. if I turn the boost down maybe 89 . but I loose 150hp. boat has a konrad ace with 1350 tranny. Ihope I can make it from fallriver to block and back. I could with gas left over with the ol 24 and 650hp. plus if I meet up with you guys on the conn river and run to LI and back SHOULD BE ALL RIGHT. I may put saddle tanks over the summer or stick a tank in the floor with another 60gals. I would like to race the LI race in the fall. opa races no problem runnin g out there in class 400. well any ideas. Art

Given your goals, I'd be looking for another tank bro!

What are you running for heads? As I recall, dont you have fairly low compression? If so, did you do anything to raise it since you're staying NA?
