2000SEARAY280SS

I own a 2000 280 SS Searay with twin 5.7 throttle body EFI Mercruisers. When running at 2900 RPM and below everything is fine. If I push on to 3000 or above I will soon hear a beep that recurs every 10 to 15 seconds. I have replaced the temp sensor, impeller, and monitored the water flow to the engine from the seawater pump using a clear hose. I used an IR thermo gun to measure the temp of all of the normal hot spots and they read the same as the port engine that does not alarm. The oil presure at 3000 reads about 50 and the temp gauge is around 175 to 180 but the thermostat housing runs about 150 to 160 with the termostat open. My manual says that only the out drive, temp, and oil presure sensors are connected to the alarm. And this forum said that an intermitant beep was the out drive sensor and that disconnecting it would cause the alarm to stop. well that did not work. My conclusion was that it must be something else. Since the oil pres is good.
:huh:
Any ideas as to what else can cause a beep related to the RPM's?
