It's a 302.

We just got back. Wow thus thing rides nice. There was decent chop today and it slices right through it. No slamming. It was even pretty dry.

I did have a couple of issues. It wouldn't pass 3000rpm. At half throttle it reaches 2800-3000 rpm and cruises at about 30mph. If I give it full throttle rpms stay the same but the motor sounds strained. It also shut off a few times when idling in the channel. I had the carb rebuilt but I think it still needs work.

Overall I'm very happy.
