Sounds like you have a great project too. Don’t forget about that throttle body... I’m going cable drive. And a 102mm vs 92mm adds no hp on dyno according to Richard holdener.
I’d get one of those Fast Lsxr intakes if I could afford one. Sharps custom intakes look great too. But I have the TBSS which is identical power to a LS3 intake and the best OEM you can get. I just can’t justify $1k for 30hp.
PS check out that F35 cam from Texas speed for your swap. It won’t work for me but oh I wish it would.

Yea, the terminator x is really economical compared to the dominator or HP. The digital dash is really over priced especially the 12.3" that I got (got mine 20% off on Holley deal days over the holidays). The little 7" display is not to bad cost wise and you can catch it on sale too somtimes but I don't know how well it would hold up to the salt or marine environment.
Far as my build, I would like to do a billet intake but may just end up with a holley high ram for now. For the throttle body I will probably go the 102 or 123mm due to we are trying to support 2000+ hp. I have TKM right now building the rotating assemble (stage 3 LSR) solid aluminum block, Callies magnum crank, GRP aluminum rods, custom full skirted turbo pistons and it will have to top fuel hoops (solid ss fire rings with copper head gaskets). Similar sister stage three engines they have done made over 2300 with a single 98 mm turbo which had a little smaller back side than mine which is a Forced inductions 98mmx116mm built by Jose. Cam is a custom grind spec from Kevin Mullins at TKM for the application running Methanol on billet atomizer 700s. It is going to be a full tilt race motor so not the common LS stuff. Love to do a mild LS in a seacraft though, I think that would be a really good fit for a 25 seafari. Looks like yours will be plenty strong for the 25 with the 243 heads. Should make a nice piece.
Picture and link to an article below of the sister engine. Mine will be based off of it with a few variations...hope to have mine ready this fall.
