    Big Block L29 vortec heads Edlebrock intake and carb

    I had the 300/330 Gen. V ICU. The boat did 52mph at 4200 rpm when I bought it as it was way to slow. I added vortec heads, Edlebrock rpm intake, and a Gen IV Ecu to elliminate the rev limit. I would hit the rev limit at 4200 rpm so I had to change to the gen IV ICU to elliminate the rev limit...

    Big Block L29 vortec heads Edlebrock intake and carb

    The carb will work on your boat. The intake will only work if you have oval ports on your heads. When I added the these oval port vortec heads to my boat, I picked up about 11 miles per hour. If you want to add cheap horse-power the vortec heads are the way to go along with the intake and carb.

    Engine cuts out at High RPM

    I found that I do have the knock sensor after looking up my ignition. It seems to be kicking in at 4200 to 4400. I was hoping to reprop and spin it up to 5000. What other information do you need or are you talking about. Been out of town on business for a while, sorry.
