Elite's on here was originally built with 496HO's. Hustler has built a few with that package.

Just for some addtional thought and avenues. Raylar equipped 32 Sunsations are running 93-95 mph with 525HP -496's with stock exhausts, thought that might be a good comparison for the Hustler Cheetahs with upgraded 496 power?

Best Regards,
