Hey - I might have it for an 89. Do you still want it?

Sorry no to TTA. It's the only one that shows that high revs. Probably because it's an overhead cam engine and all the others are not. All others show 4200-4600 max rpms.

Sure boatgrunt. The boat is a 90 model so it could be an 89 model engine anyway.
