Speeds for a 31ss...
 
Curious about poss. speeds for a '94 31ss w/454's. The boat has 320hrs. but has full tilt recent service on drives(bravo1's) and engines. Think I found one that can be bought right.

Thanks for any help, Greg.

Which 454's? Mags, 7.4's, Mag MPI's,525's?
454 mag carbs (365hp) run 67.8mph gps, full tanks, 2 people, moderate chop, 4 blades(B1). 70mph gps can be had with 3 blades (mirage plus).
Is the boat you're considering online? How about a link!

My 1990 31SS with 365s did the same as GO4BROKE.

Tom Gentry has it for sale in Michigan. I spoke to him today and he said it was in beautiful shape. He said all they had to do to the boat was replace to rubrail insert and wash it.

It is in his ad in the back area of the new Yacht Trader. He doesn't list a website but did e-mail me some nice pics.If anyone recognizes this boat and can give me some info. that would be great.

Thanks, Greg.

Pure Energy 03-24-2003 03:32 PM

GO4BROKE 03-24-2003 05:39 PM

Pure Energy 03-24-2003 07:02 PM

Sorry, I just like saying that!!

dyno 03-24-2003 07:22 PM

Pure Energy 03-24-2003 08:03 PM

Easy young Jedi! Use the Force and you will see the path to the go fast parts store.

I too am married but have mastered the ways of the Force;)

Actually I hide the boxes and bills:p

That is TOO funny

dyno 03-24-2003 08:35 PM

I hear ya Dude!!!I feel the force is strong with this one.....I can hide Msd's, intakes, carbs even justify new exhaust but a pair of blowers ....its going to take more than a Jedi!

Pure Energy 03-24-2003 10:02 PM

:D

What's the best recommended intake and Carb set up for a 33 rs w/ 330 454's

Currently doing about 63MPH 5200 rpm WOT on TRS Drives GPS

Looking for info to step up my engines....I too have to hide the bills and the boxes :crazy:

GO4BROKE 03-25-2003 08:45 PM

You will need to do cams also to really see much benefit. I would put in moderate cams, use the stock intake, 750 to 800 cfm carbs.

if it was me wait till you need to rebuild and build some 330's on steroids!!! do a search on dyno's 330's on steroids... best bang for the buck! I'm running 74 on gps now...

tomba29 03-27-2003 06:42 AM

I'm not sure if I want to wait until I have to do a rebuild.....Right now the boat is running fine but with all the poker runs comming up for summer I'd like to get in with the pack.

The average speed here is about 75mph.

If I can get up to about 70-73 I "Think" I'll be satisfied.

Dyno...Thanks for the info......there is a lot there to start with. I'm going to see my mechanic this week maybe we'll start shopping this weekend.
