They're using GM Truck engines and pretty sure GM isn't putting forged internals in they're engines so Mercury wouldn've had too. Like was said...$$$$$ basically they could just marinize the truck engines and drop them in.

I'd have to do the math but a 1:50 running 88 mph wouldnt be swinging more than a 28 would it? Can't see the advantage of going to a 24 pitch or something like that. If they are swinging bigger than that it seems they are pushing the motors way too hard.
Could be a 30 or 32. Seems like a lot on those motors. What does a 30 weigh? I know my 25 is no lite weight.
It's a heavy boat so I could be off. Maybe they had those drives on hand.

Its a sharp looking boat, you see a lot of "outlaws" with Whipples, but, not as many Boss 302's, As I said before if I was looking to step up I would look at Jason or Irish's boats first, they are both KILLER!
