Re: an almost complete engine for the new 24
It seems all these guys in fresh water tell their speeds, then have to state that they are in fresh water. So i guess its just that they'd hope it'd be faster in salt. Oh well.
Some guys stated to have gained speeds in my gen. forum thread.
I'm in salt water at sea level, just the way i like it.
Except Havasu does seem to be a fun place.
Sorry for Hijacking the thread F333.
Where will you be running the boat.
I'm trying to convince my father to take my 24 with him to FL next winter.

84mph GPS...
That boat is a light weight hull; maybe 1600lbs. vs 1900lb.
Standard hull, brobably 82mph...

i will be boating in Bradenton Florida, and Lake Erie Michigan. the cam core is cast iron but there will no problem. the motor made good power and will be very reliable, the dyno pulls were made on 89 octane also!

I will have to run 93.
My marina only carries 87, but 93 is only a 10min bubble ride away, and has a great bar.

SB, JC is trying to get me down to your neck of the woods for a bit this summer. Maybe escape from work for a day.

Thats positive thinking hopeing that a cast cam will work I have never made one work but I hope the best for you. Sustained rpm will kill that cam . Mine lasted 3 hrs if you baby it you may get a season out of it ,problem is that the cam is the hardest material in your motor it will eat your bearings and other things. Comp cams wont admit that it is a problem but engine builders will tell you dont do it.

Re: an almost complete engine for the new 24
well i guess i am having a hard time understanding what you are talking about because it seems like to me all the flat tappet and roller dirt track and asphalt circle track motors are put together with cast cores and they turn 7500 plus rpm and run them all season so can you inform me why you think this cam will break or wear out and what will break or wear out on it ??
