Very Nice...Aren't you in the New York Area? We should meet up in the sound some day and make some noise. I have a 1986 34'. I found that with the deep V, you need SERIOUS HP to make more speed. We put 496's in, they are about 525hp and the boat did not go much faster than when it had 454's. It costs a lot of money to make these boats go 80.
