I ran about 30 gallons of gas through it yesterday...
On my boat (2000lbs with 2 people) that made 4.5k to 4.8k with my '62 100hp inline and a 15 pitch SS prop - this one makes 5000 on same boat with a 17 pitch SS prop.
Top speed about 36. What's strange is that it's got a real good hole shot as it sits. It get to 4000rpm in a second or 2, then the pull from 4.2k to 5k takes a while and some trimming.
I'm gonna try the 15 pitch today and see what it does.
