Hi Finnally -
See you got logged in now don't forget to change your password - As you can see I have the sister ship to yours, lovely boat - I have 454's also and have been modified from 350 to 400 HP coupled to a 2.57 to 1 velvet drives and swing a 22 square 3 bladed cupped prop - does 18 knots at 3300 RPM and WOT of 4200 RPM on a good day 26 knots - It has a lot to do with how I load the boat and sea conditions - At WOT it burns fuel like a pig 34 gph, my usually cruise is between 3000 - 3300 RPM.
Hope this helps -
