Ya I was thinking with that power I could really load it down'just not sure what the wAKE WOULD BE LIKE.

I have an 89 with the 351. Bottom line is the boat wasn't designed for a big wake. Having the larger motor will help you out a little bit and you'll be able to load it a little bit more than I can load mine. I used to strictly wakeboard behind my boat for 4 or 5 years and thought it had a pretty good wake, until I started riding with other people who have v-drives. An empty v-drive has just as big if not bigger wake with a better shape than my boat loaded with 1000 lbs.

I have doubts about about a 390hp 454 unless it is newer. Most standard 454's of that era were 330hp I believe. That said it doesn't matter. A 454 in a prostar 190 is complete overkill. Like Brit said it wasn't designed to make a wake. It was designed to have no wake. Who knows, the hull shape may make a huge wake wake with enough weight. The problem is those are so low profile that you will sink it before you find out.

A positive is those era Mastercrafts were built like tanks and unlike pretty much everybody else at the time they didn't use wood(the kind that was really crappy and rotted).
