I just purchased a tripple engine 42 ft. Fountain. I can't find any data on the Internet regarding the gallons per hour for my engines. I have three 502 big blocks rated at 500 hp. Naturally, I am trying to determine the distances I can travel at various engine speeds. Does anyone know how much a 502 500 consumes between 3000 and 4000 rpm? I know I can figure this out over time but it would be nice to know before making any trips.

rlovelace, you should be able to find performance curves at most speed shops. Of course there will be some differences between your engines and those in the specs if anything has been done to yours.
