hey, my father and I put a pair of 516 CID BBC's in our old one with whipples and imco SC drives and extenstion boxes and we ran 118MPH but that is really close to as fast as your going to want to go in the boat ....she starts to get alittle hairy!!

hope this helps, if you have anymore questions just ask if i dont know the answer im sure my father will.

can you post some pics of the boat?

not the merc stuff but volvo did some with the 600's and volvo drives were running in the mid 90's that I was in. My (sold) 1999 33 avs with stock 502 stock setup was around mid low 70's.

I was in a few 38 avs,one had 500hp's and one had the 500hp volvo's with the dpx drive. The volvo boat was faster but who's going to buy a volvo over a merc in the performance market.
