I sent you a pm so we dont overrun somebody elses thread, but rpm wise about 46~4800, basically laying on the limiter. its a stock 454 lx mpi of unknown hours and I am not nice to it. The throttles on the dash unless Im in the air. There is a huge difference in how the boat rides at speed, its just starting to work about 50~55

What did I get out of this. Hmmmmm. I need exhaust, currently looking for emi thunders, 496 stock, etc. probably the emi since I get military discount. after we get that I think I'm gonna wing it with a lunati voodoo like the one recommended or possibly a comp xm284hr. Once I decide on that I will order springs to accommodate. And already have king x bearings on order to adjust the main clearance.

Thats good I have faith in you. You made it this far and have an open mind and kept your sense of humor through out. That's huge. Not to stir up the pot but if you want to save some money on exhaust put an ad in the wanted section for some 496 manifolds.
