The 9 pages is too much for an every day engine, the bigger ports with smaller radius mean less ring support and more chance of bridge movement. A 5/8 or 3/4 cutter would be better. Any time you add power from porting, compression etc something has to suffer and that is generally longevity. The 9 pages was meant for race engines, I cant take full credit but had a LOT to do with them. They were also done early on before even fire cranks etc at the end we ran a lot more rpm than mentioned in those pages and not for short drag type burst.
I also dont agree these engine are port grabbers, if they do its because of any one of a number of reasons.

I know I have seen pictures of the ccc ports here somewhere. They were a lot wilder. I think Chris Carson posted them if I remember correctly.

Yes for lake use they should have larger radius in the corners. Ports are similar but different than a ccc as it is a larger bore than a ccc and meant to push more weight so the ports are a little lower and less compression. Ports are as wide as the block/bore will allow.

Ok so sorry for just budding in and don't mean to step on anyone's toes but I have a question.
Is there a certain point, when a crossflow v6 is jetted right, that you should not stay at full throttle for long distances for the chance or burning it up?
I have a 1980 hydrostream vandal with a mod 200 crossflow that 90 mph in 1000 ft at 7000 rpm with a 28 et. I have not tried a bigger prop yet but am considering it. It's not like I can stay in if for super long as it is, being such a small boat but I would like to put a crossflow on a fast family boat some day.
Thank you for any info

I know this thread is a bit old but I’m hoping some of you guys are still around. I’m an OMC V6 (and V4 fan), and am wondering where you should run a factory bone stock XP? And while I’m asking, what about a 1985 175 (also stock, crossflow, my baby, does 50 on a really nice 4Winns Horizon 190 at 5800 RPM with the original stainless 21 inch. Thanks….

These guys are still around and I’m sure will chime in. However, I think you need to be more specific about what you mean by “where you should run”? Do you mean RPM? Timing? Also, be specific about the Year model and horsepower of this “bone stock” XP and you’ll get all the answers you need from these guys. Forkin has helped me a lot in the past and he knows what he’s talking about so maybe he will opine. Good luck.
