Morning Jay, she's not been wet in a while, 2 toddlers now is very busy, you know the program. She may get put back together this winter, it's time. Hope all is well. In most of the race videos she's running Mercury 1000's. War hawk runs over 100, that unit only read happened to read up to 99.9, it' s flawless.

Most are C&G 850's. (572 ci), rebuilt first by Carolina Racing, later by Tom Earhart. Those motors ran 5,400 RPM's.
Key West '91 and Coco Beach '92 are Merc 1000's (540 ci). They ran 6,400 RPM.
The "scream" you hear came from Y-pipes, which went away when I changed to CMI Big-Tubes. Best sound was Mercs and Y-pipes, but only ran that combination a couple of times.
Of course, that was more than 20 years ago, so I may have some of this mixed up.
Believe it or not, all of those motors were quite reliable: only blew one in a race ( the first one with Mercs in Key West), and that was back when races were 155 miles long, not like today's little sprints.

Reviewing J Bonz posted pics and was struck by the 38 Cigarette long uplifted engine hatch.. Going from memory again.....there was a staggered 38, can't recall what drives, maybe called Under Pressure? Looked like this one????
