The boat came with HP500s, hurt one really bad at a poker run. The triple set up was 598ci 725hp hydraulic cam pump gas ran XZ drives without any problems for three years. Used the blocks destroked to 565 ci (the wipples can't handle any more ci) CMI build the headers for these motors pulled over 1000hp on the dyno detuned them to 925hp.
Have B-max poker run drives, currently putting IMCO lowers to get the props deeper in the water currently at almost 30% slip.

Have you tried turning the props the other direction?

It poured down rain and then the fog set in to make things really interesting. What were you running.

Powerquest 26 Legend with purple, gray and yellow graphics. We made it about 200 yards from the dock when it came down. So much for keeping it nice and dry before I put it away.

Boating season just ended for me. Ran the boat this pm and the starboard motor blew a head gasket. I was only running 5000 rpm when the gasket blew. Pulling the motor tonight will find out what happen. I guess there's always next year

Copper head gasket blew out, Mercury is switching the 525s from copper to steel, I guess I'm doing the same
