5,100  rpm for an Olds and then bang...sounds about right if he was on it for more than 12 seconds. 

Sleeper CP

ya i wish i would have known that olds arent made for holding wide open for more than 6 seconds!

so far.... pulled the oil pan off and one of the bolts was off the rod (WHICH WOULD EXPLAIN THE CLUNK, CLUNK, CLUNK, CLUNK i heard right before i shut it off) . i havn't pulled the heads off yet to see if there was any damage. in the precess of it all. the oil restricter kit and a HUUUGE oil pan is in this motor's future!!!!!

21 foot cheyenne, full of people and coolers gps 60.1 mph 5400 RPM
Modified A impeller

I think I need to do some jet work, this is my baseline for tuning and tweeking the combo.


MPD gets the boat when I can afford it.

That would be pretty fast in a small boat!
