370SS speeds...?

What speed are being seen out of the 370's with 496HO's and 525EFI's? I know its a luxury boat but it still needs to get us there in a hurry if need being.

No one has had their 370 wide open to see what it does?

Most 496HO 370s will run 55, have seen one hit 58 on GPS. With blue motors I've heard 65, but have never driven one.

My 400SS with 525s does 60 so 65 sounds about right

I have driven 4 different 370's with 496 HO's;depending on load they all ran 56-58 Mph WOT. I have not had the pleasure of driving a 370 with 525's but I hear 62-65 is attainable.
