About 15Gs each for Arneson #6s... Do a search on Arnesons and see what you come up with. I think Rick Whimp is the guy you need to talk with {At Arneson) Get Arnesons dialed in and you will be the happiest boater around.. Virtually indestructible and if you do brake something they are cheap to fix!!

There was an article in Powerboat mag a few months ago where a guy converted a 382 Formula with bravos to the Arnesons and the article said he spent about 50k on the conversion.

Steve Seaton Did the work. Nice setup. He called me on some propellers I had for sale.
Once you run the Arneson you dont go back.

I would Call Rik At Arneson.

Heres the thread.http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=78420

Then again Im somewhat Biased

They didn't spend $50K on the Arneson's, that price included the engines being rebuilt and such.

$16.5K ea.
