144 Mph
 
Just a news update for the magazine trials monday:

25 Eliminator Daytona
3.3L quad rotor Paul Phaff built engine
Imco complete drive setup with 1.14 gear, short lower unit

144MPH, the fastest single engine cat ever tested! Also the quickest accelerating boat ever tested!

Hands off to Fred Inman, Bob Leach, Paul Phaff and Bob Teague for driving that bad boy!

Thanks,
Dustin

3.3L ?

Uncle-
Blower displacement, I think.

H2Xmark 03-21-2002 06:41 PM

I think the 3.3L is the blower size not engine size, very impressive
