That has to cut the price in 1/2. Annual maintence on the blond makes the boat budget seem like a rounding error in comparison.

drpete-

Whipples on 500's or 525's are gonna make 750 hp per side.

And yes Rik from Arneson knows of a few T/S guns running over 100 mph.

Just switching from Bravo's to Arnesons is a 5-8 mph pick up alone on a T/S.
