How does the new 8.2 430HP perform compared with the 496 HO it replaces?

Doesn't one have a forged crankshaft and the other one doesn't?

I've heard the talk. How does the new mill compare to the old 496 the same hull?

Unfortunately I don't have the answer but just wanted to welcome you both to www.hotboat.com. Enjoy!
