How about 85MPH?

« **on:** June 01, 2008, 12:24:00 PM »

Just curious, how about 85 MPH?, my little boat seems to be allergic to anything above 83 on a Garmin, hey maybe its my GPS thats allergic

, There aren't too many places in my neck of the woods to go that fast so only get to find out a couple of times a year. But now that I have a snoot, rideplate and stainless "A" I should be there (especially if I pull the mufflers)

Thought this would be interesting because this is the second boat I had that has the same "sweet spot" Must be Chevy thing

. I'm thinking 426" Hemi

Amen! Worked for a Chrysler dealer in my youth (15 years ago, I'm not that old!) and got to work on all of the Classics for a collector, got to drive and work on three different factory Hemi's in one week, had no clue how cool that job was until much later!

Mine did 49 mph on the GPS for about 3 1/2 hours before it melted. Uhmmm... that's all I got.

It takes a great engine to do 83, there's nothing wrong with that.

Thanks, but I had a lot of help, here is a picture of my "Wall" of second chances, kinda sick now that I think about it

Every time I burn one down, I learn one more little "not to do", we aught to all be friggen geniuses by now!
