It is an aluminum headed 383 with fast xfi sportsman fuel injection and procharger. I did a bravo swap 1.5 ratio with labbed 26 pitch 4 blade prop. Only turning it around 5100. It has more in it but the chine walk gets bad. Also added a Mayfair single ram add on hydraulic steering.

max rpm is 6000 rpm. This engine is fully blue printed and balance and girdled 5500 is my average top rpm however to achieve 85 mph with my 1.50 hesr and 28p 4 blade prop I had to turn 6k

I have not had it out this year. I have another boat project I am working on trying to finish. I boat on the Tennessee river at decaturville tn and venture down to ky lake also.

My 400 engine would hit top speed at approximately 5,200 to 5,250 rpm with the 23” Mirage Plus prop. The new 406 engine makes peak HP at 5,500 rpm. Power is only 11 HP less at 5,600 rpm. I’m hoping the boat can hit top speed at 5,500 to 5,600 rpm. If so my boat should hit 75-76 mph.
