I'd guess it depends on the condition of the Bullet. If the boat was mint, and just needs motors, thats one thing.

Stock 454's will have a hard time breaking 70mph in a bullet. Stock 502's, maybe break into the low 70's. Twin 600HP should get you around 80mph on a good day.

Stock basic gm longblocks will probably run between 6-8g each new, for 454 or 502s. If you feel the bullet is worth 20k more than your current complete boat, go for it. I know my buddy who had a killer bullet with fresh 600's and fresh bravos, on a trailer, sold for 35k last year. Boat was mint, and turn key on a myco trailer. Ran 78mph.

Was that the Bullet with the black and red tribal flames paint job? If it was I had a flight to see it @ GSC the day before it sold. Spent a few hours on the phone with John from orange beach who owned it at the time. Wound up getting a Bullet from michigan 3 yrs. ago . Stock 454 mags run low 60's. Pics in NYC brunch run thread.

Hey Roger, just sell your Fountain and buy a cat. You know you want one.
