Thanks Guys! It is kinda busy, but when I bought the boat back in 99 the only thing in the engine compartment was a bilge pump. Previously I had a 565 NA that just didnt get the job done. This is the second season with the power adder and I have a lot of clean up to do in the engine compartment. Moving up the MSIII this winter, giving me more data to capture and better control of the motor.
Thanks!

Welcome Mr. Gadgets

Beautiful boat and Engine Bay. I still plan on bringing my Bravo XZ over there for a rebuild this winter. Just need to find time to get over to your side of the state !

So I guess I'll ask. What numbers have you seen with the current setup?

 

[Mr Gadgets]

I haven't had it WOT yet. Prop is 26" and too small. I did make a pass on my last trip of the season.. 71% throttle for 4 seconds and GPS read 84.7 mph. I have seen 93.4 as I over reved the motor and a hose blew off the blower. Still sorting out the bugs, but getting there. Looking for a Maximus 28-30" to help slow down the motor. Acceleration with the 26 is unbelievable..
