Fastest 242.
I know there was a chart on another thread listing the fastest 242s. It has not been updated since 2011. I bought 86242ls's boat. It currently has a 572hp 468. I have had a best of 73.8mph. It runs 72 anytime. Whats everyone running?

You might be the fastest around with a single engine. Back in the mid '80's there were a few 242 LS's around here with hot SBC's and Alpha SS drives pushing 80.
Tommy Hoffstetter built a 800 HP 502 based Chief for a guy here that put it in a '85 242 LS. Reportedly it ran North of 85 but we never got a confirmation.

This one runs 70. Dynoed 496hp. Has more compression and a 731 cam now so a little more.

I've been 70 so far on GPS, but my buddy running the phone's GPS dropped it while trying to hold on. I have not had her WOT but close. I'll get good numbers in the new season. Hoping to be high up on the list!
