SummerObsession 05-05-2004 02:12 PM

How about 1000's and #3's?

You may have seen the boat to which I refer.;)

DanB 05-05-2004 03:44 PM

73-74
My non step w/ 520 per side is a 70mph boat

cuda 05-05-2004 04:24 PM

Stecz is currently running 0 mph with his 600 horse doggies.:rolleyes:

Hi ya Doug, nice to see ya posting ! :) How's that bad boy runnin ? You ready to sell it back to me yet ? ;)

1) True, with a normal fiberglass hull and in fresh water.

A lightweight carbon fiber hull will run 2-3 mph faster than that in fresh water.

Thanks, rebuilding my motors and looking for around 80mph.I would think 502's built to 600hp should be pretty trouble free non blower motors?Anyone have a spin on this?

Yeah, the 502's 'should' be fine. If your going N/A, its always best to start with the biggest displacement that you can though ( ie 572's / 588's / etc )

Cig 1
What props and rotation?
Mine was with 26" Bravo 1's non lab, spinning out. I would guess 23 Mirages spinning in would get me 72 or 3

I had Mirage 23" labbed turning right about 5300r's

Light load and prolly a tailwind

Havasu Hangin 05-06-2004 09:50 PM

How about 720 HP w/28 labbed props (inward) and Imco 1" shorties?

barron 05-07-2004 09:14 AM

Bigger cubes would be the way to go but need to work with the 502's. Sounds like I might have problem reaching 80mph W/600's.Is that realy pushing those 502's to hard? I would like them to lassssst! Any input?
