Just curious guys......especially those of you with a 270 SLX, but of course any model that may be of similar weight and size ....
What is your 496 MAG engine spinning at it's top speed? RPM and WOT numbers are what I am looking for.
Lately my boat seems to be slower, and it was just out of water for service so the bottom is clean and the props polished and in good shape. (Stock 26P set)
If hours matter, I've got about 120 hours on mine, with very recent complete cooling service to the tune of $3500. My temp at WOT is running around 165. Curious about how your temps are too, although I suspect my warm bay waters where I am running have something to do what my running temps, and it would be lower if I were in deep blue waters.
Anyway, I really look forward to hearing from you guys running this engine, no matter what boat it's in!
