Passing everything but the gas dock sounds about right. It all depends on what you want to give up for the speed. The boat will balance better with the small block. It likes weight forward, a lot, and, like Denny said, the big block does the opposite.

If you went for a big block, or twin 6 cylinders, some permanent weight in the bow might be a good idea.

Just a thought, I run with a `4 cycle kicker and a big dive platform with lots of storage (and weight). The duoprop adds weight way back there. In terms of CG, mine might not be too different from a big block.
