scarab 22 motor upgrade
A little help if you can. I have a Scarab 22 with a 454/330hp and am in the process of getting a new motor built. The shop is telling me I should have about 500hp when they are done. If my speed was 55mph with 330hp that would be 6 hp/mph. This would mean that I could expect 83mph out of 500hp. Is it that simple?

What motor are you running, were you going down stream just need a little info. iam running 1.5 ratio, you need well over 500 hp to get that speed out off a 22 . if it is a stock 330 hp your rev limiter is set 4350 if it is a mag 4850 , hp 500 5350 . With a 24 labbed prop i think you would be on the rev limiter .
