Is it possible to edit a thread title? Adding 24cs to the title would be nice.

I contacted Pier 57 about the 24Cs that they built. ( Extremely nice people) It was 550 hp 502. They used a bravo 28p labbed by BBlades. So I will hopefully get a good test pass and see what I have. A local prop guy told me mine had been worked, but he didn't know what had been done to it.

Did you do anything besides taking it to a 509? going from a 502 to a 509 isn't gaining you anything power wise that you would notice, maybe 7hp. A 28p hydro is ALOT of prop if its relatively close to stock power.

The compression was raised and it got a lumpy cam with stainless marine exhaust, valve job including roller rockers. Couple small things, aiming for the 500 HP mark.
