Thanks for the info.

My next two big upgrades, once I figure out how everything works and where everything is, are fresh water cooling and Procharger supercharger. Not sure the supercharger will fit. But that will probably require an outdrive upgrade. Have to get some better pics from procharger. Not much room in front of the belt. Not in any hurry.

Got the oil changed in both the O/D and the motor. Both needed it. Just been tinkering and figuring stuff out. First thing I need to do is clean a lot of contacts in the fuse/CB panel.

However, this coming Summer I'm going to leave it stock except for maybe the fresh water cooling and just enjoy some nice rides in rough water for a change.

I'ld suggest going with the Whipple units, much cleaner install and much less B.S. with set-up calibration. Costs a little more up front, but the savings in headaches are well worth it. I did a Pro Charger on a 502 and would never do it again. I know they can be great, but very tricky to set-up properly. Just my 2cents. I had a Prowler and considered a supercharger, if you cut away the overhanging floor in the bilge, I think you can get the belt clearance. I decided to go a simpler route and dropped in a 525 EFI, sold the 502, and for the cost of a blower upgrade, had a stock, blue powered boat. It'll sell 4 times as fast as an add-on supercharger boat! Steve

I'd have to agree with 509
