Not allergic...just not wanting to rush this. End result is going to be fast, reliable & worth it. I've seen what rush jobs do. I'd rather do it right & not boat, then do it wrong and not boat.
By the way...we have to Nicorette up and running.

I guess I'll just have to run the boat and see how many times I will head back to MB.
This is a sample article on some of the meathod behind the madness.

You think too much like a merc tech. These arn't merc motors and not all V8's are the same. These motors can turn @ 7800 with the right valvetrain geometry. Everything has been port matched and is brand new, best of the best in parts. Basically, we have built a mini nascar motor (or 2) and as you know those guys spin a V8 at 9500+ for hours on end.

My peak Tq is at 5400. So you'd prop it at 6600?
I don't think anything in the marine industry has a set rule of thumb. Not all power is built the same...Not sure if mine is better or worse than any others...it been built to take
