I havnt put flour in it yet, does that help the mileage Brady or just speed? Baahahah
 
I loved my crate 454. 950 hours on her and slung a bearing. 496 now. Had it to do over again I would have put another 454 in it. It did all I needed it to do. Run dry and ran great
 
I had a 502/502 it was a wicked engine. It would scare you in my 20ftr with the Holly carb. She did like the fuel but I say she would take a beating. I ran it hard for a long ways back before you could trailer at the Muzzy. It was awesome passing folks that blasted off before us and seeing their face when an airboat passed them. I had trouble with the carb but never any problems out of the engine. I would love to have a 502hp. fuel injected on a mid weight hull. I think you need to take what hull you are going to run into account when picking the engine. Those 496's are not enough for heavy boats.
 
We had to push DC cause our driver didn't know how to GAS ON IT!!! Lol
 
I lost 650 hp on the way to the Cajun this year , I don't know where it went lol
