liquid asset!!

Are you posting pictures of other peoples engines??

Although I have to admit , it is a nice display of horsepower!!!






By the way liquid,, you been to Clear Lake lately???

Dock Holiday,

I've have viewed the cabin space also. Your right about Top Gun with cabin space.

That's why my other consideration was an 37AVH Activethunder. My only concern with my girlfriend was enclosed head. I did however want the boat with enough space to install at a later date, A/C, generator ect, ect,......

Wanted to tell you , you have a nice 36. Been checking out the pics!!!

29Scarab,

That shot that liquid posted is Brad Perry's Motor... IIRC that's a blown 540.

That's in a HAMMER.

He claims speeds well over 100 mph in that thing. With 900+ horsepower, I believe him... I'm just not sure how he keep the prop in the water. This boat only weights 3,600 pounds dry.

dloftis,

What kind of drive does have thats holding all this HP??

I don't think you would catch me in there doing a 100.

I use to be on a pit crew for 1/4 mile drag boats!! I've seen some NASTY things happen to boats that don't have a transom or a hull made to handle that much HP!!

Now, if that was in my boat!! Hmmmmmm..... interesting thought?

The next quest if I didn't sell mine was to buy a stroker kit and different injectors!! Now that would be fun!!

No idea what kind of drive... but you wouldn't catch me in his boat, either.... my boat doesn't handle big water at ALL, it just doesn't have the waterline. I can handle full throttle up to about 2'-3' seas and after that, I'm backing off.

Hey liquid,

Linn and I went to the Texans game last night. We're seriously talking about putting one of his 540ci *slightly* tuned (750ish horsepower) motors in my boat for fun this winter...

Should be fun!
