I have a 24' Fisher two toon barge, it has a 3.0L merc w/ alpha 1 outdrive. I get 19mph top speed. The rpm's are at 3900. I would like to get more speed to be able to ski my teenagers behind it easier. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi,
I am wondering if I could gain a little more power and atleast 10mph by pulling out my 3.0 and bolt in a 5.0L MPI. I have a Alpha 1 outdrive. Has anyone ever attempted this, is it even possible? Thoughts??
Thank you in advance! :D
