Re: BBF 528 Pump Gas Engine: 737HP & 672lb-ft Torque

Thanks guys.

It is indeed a neat build and ought to be reliable, too. And relatively maintenace free, all things considered. Of course, all high performance engines require a fair amount of preventative maintenance but we think we reduced the higher maintenance of this engine down to primarily the valve springs being the most important component to keep an eye on (the engine will run 6000 rpm sustained in a jet boat). And of course touching up the valves seats on a scheduled basis.
