Did any of them come from the factory with 525's??????????

I think for the most part that year came with 496s and 525s. Most I've seen are 496s

So it's possible it came from Fountain with the 525's stock??There is a nice one for sale just doing some research??

Yes, 525's were an option. A friend of mine has one, didn't seem to to push the boat as fast as I would've thought, 87mph.

I would say its possible. The ex was used as the econimical go fast so most have 496s. I'm sure if someone wanted the 525s Reggie would have done it. You can always check with RF, they will know for sure if it was possible.

This boat came from factory with 525's in it, it is a fast boat and like I said it is mint, the cleanest Fountain I have ever seen, only 38 hours.

It was an option, very few made though.

Like others have said, there were a few built. Local guy had one for a while, probably the one thats in Kemah now. That one and the one advertised for sale now are the only two I've seen with 525's.
