Have head gaskets been done? They are notorious for failing.

Fun times Eric!! that hatch was fun for us to get off too...
going to be nice when done, as far as engines one thing I learned is keep it simple and reliable, Konrads to 750HP should be good, I know they say more but I think that's safe zone for them when I talked to guys.
I was super bummed I missed out on that boat years ago, I always loved it!

Agree with simple. Has anyone used that new injection system on there 575s on here ? I did talk to Eddie today for some time I have my blowers off we’re just going to have those rebuilt. Moters have flat rap cam still so we’re going to do roller cams and a head surface and valve job. I’m considering the new injection due to the throttle bodies having a reputation for sticking and washing cylinders. I’d be curious to hear feedback on if anyone is running them and how they like them

We are leaning towards the new injection and the roller cams from Eddie. With quick valve job and surface. So basically the top ends. Any thoughts ?
