Not sure how much if any space difference there is between a 25 and 26 Outlaw
Baja did build at least one (and I believe only one) 26 with a 600sci and everything cleared

Wild card had a 600sci in his. The 700 is only 3/4" taller. I was also wondering how loud the blower would be in that boat.

The whine starts around 4000 rpm.... I actually like it ;)

Fine whine right?

525sc fits, blower belt is 1 inch from the rear bench and hatch is fine. My digital GPS read by the 10th mph, runs the fastest with a lot of trim

Say a guy we're to be crazy enough to drop a 700sci in a boat with a typical loaded weight of roughly 5800lbs, how long would a bravo X upper and lower stand up to that kind of power if not driven like a jet ski? What about a XR?

if the X breaks, skip the XR and go to an SCX

I hope OP does this........

I got a Merc 525 with a Whipple that will be going into my 25 OL. I'll probably start a thread for advice on plumbing and other things I'm not an expert with. Stay tuned.

Intercooled whipple with aluminum heads at that
That should be quite a runner there
