    Would like to know what my wot rpms should be for this motor. The research I have done pulls up that this was the motor to have in its day. It is sitting on a 1988 basshawk 196xl. The prop is a 4 blade 26pitch. I run 61 to 67 depends on water conditions and which way I run in current at 5400rpm. From what I can tell it is all stock with all the right number stamps. Not sure if rodbolt is still on here but he seems to have alot of info. Thanks for any info I can get and maybe a few pointers.

      Looks like 5,800 WOT:

      You'd ideally like it trimmed out to max RPMs at WOT. Sounds like your pretty close to that now..
