Thanks, guys. I will probably be all over LOTO, but usually can be found anywhere from the 3 MM up to the 31 MM. I don't have a place there, so will probably be overnighting at PB2 quite a bit. Look me up!

UPDATE: I'm going through the top end on those Merc 540 Bulldogs and it looks like I'm going to need a set of Crane rocker arms. A handful of them seem to have sticking points and not roll freely.
Anyway, does anyone know the part #? And, more importantly, is Crane stuff still available? Thanks in advance!

if you have the time have rmbuilder put a cam package together go hyd roller and let those 540s stretch out a lil DEAN Gellner can set you up with nice carbs and cam also. congrats on the boat! 500hps are nice but with a lil cash hyd roller cams with the low hours you could have 650hp and in a few yrs do the lowers. I did that on a 502 it had 200 hours converted to hyd roller cam then 5yrs later rebuilt it to a 509. good luck

Thanks, J.T. They're supposed to be going back together next week. From what the guys said, we caught the head gaskets in the nick of time. PBB said they've already tracked a set down.
Air Time - if $ was no object, trust me, I'd bump 'em up a bit! I figure when it's time to do the lowers in a few seasons, I'll go a little more radical with them. Until then, I'm happy with what I've got... for now...
