What is a NA engine?

I have to say, the boat you describe is exactly what I want for my next boat. Fresh motors is a must for me. I never thought my budget would put me in a #6 staggered set up...

I would hope a pair of 525's with bulletproof outdrives would get me north of 80 in a 33-37 fountain or similar light hull. I'm thinking any boat that could keep up most likely will blast past me and...

I priced the 525 blue motor @ 20K so times two, new motors and drives I'm looking at around 72K plus sales tax.

Pricing a tired boat with 2 496's and XR drives @ around 50K, I could run them for...

So is Scx rebuild components that go into a bravo drive or is it actually a different drive all together?

Is there ever an end to this? 15 MPH faster than my last boat. Already trying to figure out what set up I want next.

Looking ahead, I'm trying to figure out which will happen first, going broke or...

When an XR drive is not enough, is there any other options other than #6 drives?

I hear many people say XR drives stand for explode and replace. You have to bleed money to run #6 drives, so what is a person to do?

Not at all, thanks for this reply. I'm going into this with my eyes open. I'm leaving my little Baja alone. I might get the prop labbed thats about it.

I found a website that priced a 525 with X...

OK my bad, I currently have a 496 Mag with a Bravo I. Most likely I will be refreshing my outdrive at some time and should take it easy coming out of the water.

So based on what has been said, 525's with X drives is what I'm really wanting. If I run in the 80's that would be fine with me. So how many ponies do the 525's put out?

So all twins have...

Besides being a bigger motor, what makes the 525 a "racing" engine? What does it have the 496 does not?

OK, so the next level above XR's cost how much more? The HO's put out 375HP and a straight bravo is good for 400.

What do the 525's put out and what are the XR's good for? Bigger and stronger is...

Lets talk Motors and Reliability not Performance

OK, I'm new to big blocks. I had a small block in my last boat. I bought it new, 5.0 mercruiser 225HP. I sold it after 10 years of ownership and had over 2,000 hours on it with not so much as a burp...

I hope you are happy with whatever you choose. It's not like you have to keep the boat forever. Everything is a trade off. Enjoy Miami and the best of luck to you!

And of course you will want that 150 MPH boat to run on 87 ethanol as well. Should be no problem.

If you read what the OP posts closely, he wants the Donzi. "My truck is not big enough", "my storage is limited".

What this boils down to is Comfort vs Speed. Is the BT that more comfortable or is...

Why not just buy a cabin cruiser and be done with it. I would hate to be passed by a single engine boat. That is a real possibility with the BT. Not so with the Donzi.

I love my little Baja. It's not like I will always have this boat. No matter what my next boat is, someone will talk smack about that one as well.
