Best bang for buck imo!
Matter of fact, I think mine idle, start better, and more docile than my buddies hopped up 420's. that's with 300 more ponies too. MPG, well, I lose that one.

I love the challenge of squeezing the most I can out of simple combos without going broke... To run 65 in mine now with the power I have is pretty good considering everyone said I would be lucky to hit 60-62 with my power... Love the challenge!!

Ya that's not bad. My old 40' hawk with 400's best ever was like 61mph. My old 402 Formula weighed in at 16k lbs with no fuel on the trailer. With 600's, it ran a solid 68-70. which wasnt bad. with 400's those 402's did 53-55 on a good day. The TRS didnt like that boat though. I know all about the big old wave crushers!!

You are putting a 420 cam back in. What are you trying to accomplish? If you are replacing the cam and want to achieve more HP without going to hydraulic roller why are you using the same cam? I thought you wanted to achieve 525? Same cam same heads will result in same HP.
Do a search "330 on roids" there are a few flat tappet cams in that thread.
