Hello All,
I'm new to the forum and enjoy looking through the postings.
Here's my question. Anyone whom has a 1995-1999 330 dancer please jump in.
I have owned a 1989 280 for 11 years. Powered with 4.3LX 205hp twins w/ Alpha 1 outdrives.
This boat has been great over the years. Its a little under powered but acceptable.
I am strongly considering the purchase of either a 1995 330 dancer w/260hp 5.7 small blocks, carbs
or a 1998 330 dancer w/330 7.4 big blocks fuel injected.
I have not sea trialed the one with the 350's. I have trialed one with big blocks and was pleased with the
torque and smooth power.
Who has this boat with 350's? Tell me what you can about its performance.
I can only get a ride on the 1995 if I make and offer, its accepted, pay the deposit etc. Its the SOP in my area as is probably the case with most brokered boats.
If you have run both engine setups I would love to hear from you. I would also be curious what prop setup you have on either engine.
I realize the only true way to know is to take a ride but prior to going through all the hoops I'm looking for some feedback.
Thanks in advance for any help and opinions you may have!!
John
