Did the rebuilds over the winter. Motors dynoed at just over 900 hp. Big difference from how it ran.last year. Now the issue has been outdrives which I knew would happen. Just installed IMCO SCX's last week but really haven't had a chance to run it yet. Still working on dialing it all in.

Those motors looked like 500's with pro-chargers, which is normally good for 700 HP. How'd you get to 900?

UBelieve they were 540s when he bought it from LOTO. Guessing he added heads and an aggressive cam. My 555s did 775 with iron heads and M3SC and very mild cams.

A number of years ago at the Chicago Boat Show Black Thunder had a couple of boats there - I still have the pictures somewhere. It is true you have a floating condo. Beautiful boat and from what I could tell very well built. I believe the 525 were pretty much standard issue.
