I have a 1979 Cat 27 TR with Atomic 4. I have an Engine Manual I'd be
happy to Xerox and send to you. Lotsa good skinny in it. Mine requires
maintenance from time to time, but it purrs (hums) like a C-130's jet
engine. Hasn't failed me in any major way yet. You gotta be an engine
sniffer as it is gas-driven. Max rpm is 3600, producing 30 Horsepower
(dunno shaft hp), but I cruise at hull speed (considering wind, waves) at
about 1500-1650 rpm. I installed a tachometer. Have been out on Lake
Michigan in 6 footers and gusts up to 38+ knots on the nose and the A4 got
me to my destination. Anyway, blah, blah, blah. Lemme know if you want
the manual; there are two models ---early and late, and some accessory
equipment is different.
moyermarine.com is a great source of info and parts with good
directions.

throttle--performance--etc ??
