Come on 3 years when my warranty is up...
He has a setup for my motors to make about 350 hp at about 6800-7000 rpm. But I like my stock setup for now.

These guys are looking for a doner 300XS for R&D. Someone needs to help us all out. I'm in California, too long of a drive and plus I use my boat 2-3 times a week 9 months out of the year.

I like to know the limits of what some thing can do so I know how to stay inside them.
Thats cool. They are some sweet motors!

I'm not gonna lie, Ive been looking at V hull's, but if you can draw 102 out of a 30ft skater, I may just go for a 36ft cat! Cause I won't hit that mark in a 36ft V hull with 525's!

If anyone is gonna be up on Lake Ontario or the St.Lawrence on one, I'd love to take a ride in one...I'd even pay for gas!
