Yea I'm usually living on the edge..... It's a go pro on a suction cup with the open back housing. Full fuel and two of us runs upper 60s (67) Mirage + 23p about 5200 rpm. I have been told with the current power (425) should be in the low 70s but I know crap about setting up a boat. It's a hoot either way, it's my first ever boat.

I wouldn't mess w/ it too much....pretty good numbers for an old 78. The 23 Mirage is a good all around prop. Looks good!!!

Thanks guys. This video was last Sunday, I had nothing to do this week so I pulled the top end of the engine lol. Had the heads checked and a valve job done, pick them up tomorrow, got new ARP stainless intake bolts, ARP headbolts and all gaskets today. Powdercoated the intake, valvecovers and some brackets. Now to clean the exhaust up and re-assemble.
