I've got an 1982 with 496's alum heads, 26 bravo ones props, You should expect an honest 70.

Thanks kamma ! That was going to be the next question.
I'm buying the big ol' beast with re-built TRS and Veltvet Drives, but no props. 26's should be a good place to start .
What do you cruize @ speed wise with those wheels?

3200 to 3400 rpm anywhere from 45 to 51 mph, depending on the water. Any more questions let me know? I live in Ida, Mi.

See how you are?
Yeah, but who's KV are you upgrading to?
Found those "papers" we were looking for.
Appears I have the Dyno Sheets / invoices / warranties for the 540's.
Bring 'em over this week end.......... we'll talk......
