Those Konrads work with the power you have! I'm going to run my Konrads till we swap to 6's. Plus Joe is building some 1500's for my boat! Will swap to 6's and bigger power at the same time, might be a year or so but it's in the works and engines are being built. Just need to find some Quad rotor whips now!!

Wow, that will be one baddass machine! I just couldn't stomach spending for #6s on this hull, and I did consider it I told myself it would be time to move to a better hull before I did that, newer boat, or something else like a big Sport Fisher. Did you consider Arnesons? I did, but it was about the same as #6s, and was told the handling wasn't as good on the hulls as SSMs.
I do not think Konrads would have lasted behind 1050-1100 hp the way I would like to drive it. They would have lasted with what I had, with the 8-71s, but not now, too much torque. I want to be able to abuse this thing and enjoy it, not keep it in the water. Good luck with the build, post up pictures or add to your other thread, love the detail and explanations.
I could probably up the power with bigger carbs, more fuel/boost, etc. Not sure if they will crank 1500hp. But aren't you going to have to run super high octane? Or just monster cubes, turbos, what? Details please.......

They will be 93 octane up to 1500 & 1800+ with race fuel! I wanted a newer boat but the wife loves this thing so we plan to keep it for a long time!
Engines are 588ci, Tall Blocks with all Calies USA parts in them & Brodix Head Hunter Heads. We are going EFI with Quad Rotor Whipples.
Plan to get the engines built first then work on finding some 6's!

1500's!!!! Jesus! In a straight bottom Cig? 
Seriously though, What point do you run out of hull with a straight bottom Top Gun? Has anyone ever put that much power in one?
