    go big block? seriously, ditch the TBI, go either MPI or carb, go with a better cam and go with a stroker with a good cam and a good 4-barrel carb or MPI, you can get about 300hp at the props with the stock 350 with the same good cam, better pistons, some head work and you can get about 320hp...

    Corrosion/coating on props question

    yes, on a moored boat, I would paint the props with anti-fouling paint. stainless props used to come with paint, then because people want bling factor companies started not painting them. cheaper to manufacture and now they can charge more
