i just looked at that boat a month or so ago to do a little touch up on the graphics this winter. very nice setup. i think they were imco extremes ( i may be wrong).big'ol blower motors too. the owner is on the board here somewhere, i'm sure he will post in.

Prop shafts 1.5" below the bottom of the boat, Side by side engine installation, Bravo 1 - 28" labbed props (rotating in), 1400+ hp (6950+ rpm in Kilo run). Total weight 8020 (no fuel or crew). I lot of bottom work and Lake X time to figure it all out...I bought the boat new in 1987. If you want any more info, please give me call. 214 221 1007.
