1999 Lightning 42 with triple 800's
 
1 Attachment(s)
Looking at a 1999 triple 42 with Hagedorn Motor Sports power that dyno'd 810hp each. How fast would the boat run?

Anyone heard of Hagedorn?

It's a 100 hour boat IMCO boxes and bravo drives. On an aluminum Myco. Care to put a dime on it?

My guess........... 120 in salt water. 116 fresh water under 1000 ft alt.

You're probably right on the money there. The acceleration will be unbelievable.

Those blowers look like they are giving it all they got. 810HP with those might be over the edge. Before i stick my foot in my mouth any farther what CI are those?

mine was built as a tripple 750 boat [previous owner] and shogren said it ran approx 99, when it was rerigged as a staggered twin it ran a couple mph faster , for whatever that is worth .

They are 540's

Man. With that setup, I wouldn't ask for more that 700 out of those for reliability reasons. But thats maybe cause I like to hang on them for a few minutes at a time.

sounds like a lot of power for those drives to handle

Those are 250's...I would get rid of those and the innercoolers for 8-71's
