Early Y2K

Anyone have any idea how much Hp it would take to move an early build y2k w/#6 drive to 75-80 mph?

Sorry, I stand to be corrected, sure would be nice if your friend chimed in on the Y2K threads. I would like to know how the boat handled with the 6 SM Drive, what power and how fast.

And the answer is?

So now that it's a #5 and Not a # 6 is a 525 still a power requirement to attain 75-80 mph?

Why a 525, the SM 5 is good for 750 plus hp.
