There is something I learned today. A Stingray is better than a Cigarette, Donzi or even a Formula. 
I wonder what would posses someone to sink that kind of cash into the motor and blower in that type of boat. Don't get me wrong. I think we have all had our own projects that we spent too much money on, but apparently this is an extreme example of diminishing rewards.

Hey, phughes69. Your Scarab was mine in the 80's. I did all the work on it transforming those turbo motors and getting that Scarab to run decent. When I sold that boat it came on plane like nothing. I also swapped the drives and tried different props tring to get the boat to lift the nose but the hull design with the hook in the chines just drives the front down. Was going to send the boat to Cleveland to get the bottom blueprinted and the hook removed but never did. Got more info for you if your interested on some of the history. I kept the boat at Emerald City Harbor when I owned it.
