There hasn't been a big power #6' staggered tall deck 460 ever built. Mike's is the first. Our BT is the only other BT with staggered big power, but it's a different hull than Mike's boat.
Mike has the latest and greatest hull setup from BT that has changes made to it from information that my dad and I gathered on ours. I think it should run pretty nice!
Mike, you gonna run at the shootout this year? I suppose you would need intercooler cores first....

Also, the current hull design (the one Mike is getting) ran a best of 95mph on merc 850's. Should go quite a bit faster by staggering them and adding another 300hp or so per side.

We have not made the trip to BT yet, had a few issues on my end, we are taking a motor down and the tramsmissions so we can fit up the rail system for mounting and I can then finish fabricating the motor mounts.
Along with the inner cooler delays we are experiencing a little from Mercury as well.
We are going next week for sure and i will have pictures and info.
Motors are wired, plumbed, and ready for inner coolers and onto the dyno.
The shootout depends on when the project hits the water and how many bugs we need to shake out.
Will keep you posted
