That seems normal to me . Takes longer and costs more than expected . As long as it runs good all will be forgiven .

We got the motors dynoed they made 625 HP and 615 Foot pounds of torque each. @ 5800 RPM on 91 OCT gas and sounded great.
I was hoping for around 700HP but come to find out these motors are 510 CID and not 572 CID. So 625 HP from 510 CID natural asperated is respectable and probably better on my XR's than 700HP plus I have room to rebuild the motors to 540's and 572's when the time comes. I'm happy with the dyno runs.

I am also in the process of pouring a slab for Velocity parking only.

Nice numbers there VV, should put you into the upper 90s, now get them into the boat.

WTF is up with the excavation work? You said a parking pad, not an entire concrete yard.

Nice numbers VV. I just got a new motor for my boat as well. Should be a pretty sick ride! 594 HP at 6200 and 540 ft lbs TQ at 4200!

Now it just needs a scoop/hatch work. It is not new, has 11 or so hours on it. I will pull it back out this winter and change a few things and add some "BLING".

Congrats on your numbers too, sounds like she will go purdy good with that motor. When are you going to be ready? Derebery's finally catching up on the work load so I'm in line. Derebery has been covered up all season. I'm in no hurry, the season is over for me anyway. I feel good about them doing my re-rigging nice bunch of guy's up there. Even though I bought my parts all over the country and very few parts from Deberey, Leon has took real good care of me. A real stand up guy in my book. As long as it takes it will be worth every minute of the wait. I wouldn't want to take my boat to someone that could get me right in to do the work. Being in line tells me Leon does good work and boaters bring there stuff to him so get in line if you want something done right.

FU king awsome, I like the sound of the exhaust outside the shop. Mine also is not done yet. One thing after another. I have one engine in and will rig it this weekend if the weather is crappy. ( I still have my 302SR1 FORMULA ) and the Canadian summers are short so I'm out whenever I get the chance.
