Re: single v bottom with #6
JCPerf,
As you see in the Photo's articfriends posted it is a nice clean package. The exhaust is under the water and is super quite and all white looks like a super stocker. Comming up to the dock it idles like 800 or less the boat is unreal.
When we went for a ride and he punched it we were at speed so quick it was unreal. Almost hard to get the sensation of how fast you were going cause it happens so quick and yet the boat is so stable and handles like it's on rails.
He has 10 years on the engine if memory serves me and it hasn't been bored. Bill is very very safty concerened in all aspects, could feel safer or more comfortable.

Articfriends,
I work with Dan's cousin so it's kinda fun cause I get to hear it from both parties. Yes you are right Dan did a lot of tweaking including a monster inner-cooler. Steve Morrison was hoping to have him ready for the shoot out as well as a representitive for what Steve's engine shop can do.
When they dynoed they made so much power it broke the braket's right off the front of the engine that holds all the pulleys etc. So after that They had to make a big billet plate to hold every thing and keep it stable and strong. Trust me it was running right when it left Steve's shop.
Another fella I work with runs Twin 700's from Steve's shop and I will say they run alot stronger than I expected too.
Anyway's Dan had all this work done already when he had his encounter with Bill / Check300.
I later talked with Bill and you know the rest, Bill is a stand up guy and as honest as they get.
