The 450’s are having Popet Valve issue. The retainer clips are breaking and the popet internals blow out. If this happens, you lose water pressure in the motor. You can still run it to get to the trailer, you just have to go easy and trim to get as much pressure as possible. All Popet valves...
I have done this trip many times. Takes me every bit of 22 hours from Phoenix. I stay in Amarillo TX on the way out, but on the way home I head straight through to Phoenix. Amarillo is about 12 hours from Phoenix, so it breaks up the trip for me if I choose to stop for the night.

WE are headed down 11/10 and will leave Haulover with the MTI crew 11/12. We are all staying at Marlin Bay in the Keys this trip. We have a VRBO there and will make day trips. We will all be in actual Key West Friday for the day tho..
We don't have a home or condo in the Keys, we just rent...
