Default awesome .02.

Sounding like the 5.7 carb is the way to go: I am on the fence about buying a short block and building it up myself vs buying an already running takeout etc.

I like the MPI idea... only problem is the motor I was looking at went quicker than a school boy in a nudie booth. It was a sweet deal. This is the second 5.0 I screwed up on: last year I had an opportunity to buy a 2010 w 70 hrs on it (freshwater lake) for 2250.0.... woulda shoulda coulda.

Oldfielder, what prop are you turning and is it a bravo or alpha setup?

Ive an alpha one (Sterndrive engineering replacment) gen II and have a few props on hand to choose from.
