1-800-runs new 540 Attack dog
Planning to repower with a 540 (baja 272). The recon 540 Attack dog long block seems to be a good deal when compared to the prices used HP500 EFIs....
Does anybody run this engine on the board?
experiences and opinions appreciated.
Thanx
Andy

I know someone with a pair in a 38 Formula. They have been good to him. I have their 502s and have been happy.
Others who have recently contacted them have not been happy with their cuctomer service and have gone elswhere.

Hey Andy,
Check out my thread: http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...threadid=46160 regarding 800runsasnew. That should tell you who you are dealing with. I had Steve at Total Marine Performance do my motors. Great guys to work with and very straight shooters. Competitive pricing and even better service. My new motors will be here Monday. I'll be posting pics. Everyone else I've talked to has nothing but good to say about Steve, Eddie and yes, even Leander! If you have any questions, post here or PM me.

Hey mongo,
Bet you can't wait
I was going to go with the same package you did with steve.
Just could spend the extra this year.
Bought a new 415hp 502, $4400.
maybe next year i'll pull it and make some changes.
Post some pics when they arrive

I've been chomping at the bit! Although, they probably sent a set of old Pinto engines, but I won't know until Monday when we open the crates
Don't worry, I'll post some pics. A pair of Pinto motors should push that Cig of mine just fine...
