Project: Creating a 100-mph Chaparral
Interesting project, especially for the more budget-minded, http://speedonthewater.com/boat-rest...l-villain.html.

One of my good friends had the same boat, no way 67 mph with the stock 260HP, his was worked and would do barely 60. I wouldn't want to think about 100 mph on that hull, no way is that boat designed for that speed. Just hope he doesn't hurt himself.

I would have to agree... It reminds me of the guy at the boat launch telling all the kids his 290 PQ did 90mph.

Sounds like a recipe for disaster . This goes against all conventional wisdom here on OSO . 600 to 700 na horsepower 427 will be turning some rpm's and up against an alpha drive . Not gonna work too good .
