Garry, I was running 7.5#'s boost on my 454 mag bottom end for 350hrs at 700+ hp. (better heads and cam ect.)I can't see why you would rebuild so soon. Mine still ran 100mph when I sold it.

Just consider if you had a cat you would pay $3500+ a year insurance and still have to buy a Bravo every other year. Now, just do it! :evilb:

Yes it will get done, sooner or later. The EFI is a must, I would never remove that from the motor. As for the remap on the puter I knew that was the deal going in to the 600 sci. I wish my plans to upgrade could go easy ( and I see its not ) but the upgrade will be out there soon enough ( I hope ) Some times we all end up saying COULDA SHOULDA WOULDA. If I was to order the boat now perhaps it would be a different set up. You guys know what I mean..........twins, staggered twins, 1000 single, XR, #6, gear splitter, IMCO,,,,ETC !!!! When the winter is over and Superbabi is still going 83 mph on a 2-3' chop, I still will be wearing A VERY BIG SMILE !!!!!! :D

there is allways the option of swapping the 600 out completely... keep it around for when you off the boat and the higher resale.

I would have to remove all the smart craft guages, remember my K-planes are also read through the SC 5000.
