Looking at purchasing a 2002 320DA with Merc 350 V-drives. Would appreciate any advice from 320 owners on what to look/look out for.
 
Normal survey stuff. Nice cruiser with a good ride at reasonable price. Some will say small blocks aren't enough for this boat but I never have felt under powered. You have to run in the 3800 range to cruise but it seems happy at that rpm. I am partial to small blocks myself. I think they are more reliable and last longer imo. Good luck.
 
With or without closed cooling? And where will you be boating, salt or fresh water? If salt, and no closed cooling, you have to replace the manifolds and risers pretty frequently.
 
We just closed the deal today on a 320 Dancer with 350 Mags and V Drives. On my GPS speedo on my phone we hit 38 mph at WOT.

I would say that's a bit generous with v-drives. I have never seen better than 34-5.
