Thanx Brad !!!! good thread. Speeds seem to be all over the place ?? Is that because of the notched transom or no notch ?? Also saw a thread long time ago about big speed increase with 2" shortie drives ? anyone remember ?

Bird Dog: i am just finishing up a refit on my bullet and can tell ya...I LOVE IT!! it is a heavy boat but it runs w/ the bigger boats all day and doesnt miss a beat. the cockpit is tighter than the guns or cafes but i can get 5-6 people out for a comfortable ride. the cabin is pretty nice in size and has plenty of space for me. i am running 454's that were bored and stroked to 496 w/ 250 blowers and 1280 nickersons. i am only up to 3 lbs boost and run 75 at 5000 w/ 28 bravos. i am now looking at imco shorties or a nosecone for mine as i hear the 89 bravos arent very efficient at those speeds and will start playing w/ props and a little more boost too. should be able to get low 80's is what i am told. here is a pic from the daytona run. let me know if you are interested and you may be able to talk me out of it.
