Oh, BTW.
when we were trying to put together a package for the 35 Cigarette, we wanted to try and use a set of 525SC blowers that we knew were available.
Garry felt they would run out of steam on the 502's that were in the boat. He said we would have to spin them up to much to make any power and it would make a lot of additional heat, making detonation a problem. Thats when we scrapped the SC package and the owner got the 500's NA.

We used ISKY cams...but had them ground at 114°
Grind No./Type: RR-275/284 HYDRAULIC ROLLER...RPM-Range: 2500-6400 Valve Lift - INT: .553 EXT: .578 Valve Lash Hot - INT: .000 EXT: .000 ADV Duration - INT: 275° EXT: 284° .050 Duration - INT: 228° EXT: 238° Lobe Center: 112°
Toolroom Gold Springs by them also.
No change on the carbs or timing.
They were dyno'd but I sent the new owner all the paperwork on them so i don't recall @ what rpm they made the 580 at.
Ran 92Oct.
Pulleys were the next size smaller Weiand had...We rebuilt the blowers and used a non Merc input shaft so we could change pulleys.

Do your remember the 42 fountain that had triple 525sc. It had built up motors and innercoolers.The guy told you 100mph

Yeah, he told me they were putting out a little over 600hp I think?
It would have been interesting if Chuck let Brett and I take out his 42 Fountain and see that guy's boat really did 100mph. He challenged us right at the dock because I told him I really didn't think it went 100 mph. Maybe the motors were tweaked even more than he said. He said the only thing he did was install intercoolers. Didn't you hear he changed cams too? BTW, what ever happened to that boat, its gone.
I heard it was fast, but I think 90mph was more realistic. Maybe someone here on the board has a similiar setup?

I talked to the guy that built the motors. I think he told me he donated the boat.
And it had the cam one step smaller then the crane i posted and the innercollers made a huge improvement

This has been covered...approaching 600 HP MAX . To spin these little blowers fast enough on enough cubes to make more than that won't work. The adibiatic efficiency goes down the toilet. Innercooler or not, that size blower case can only support so much rotor speed (and air thru it).
