This is awesome and I can't wait to see the finished product.
Mark from MER Performance is turning reliable 825-ish HP out of Holley Injected 572s in an OSO member's boat.
I would think done right, pushing 900HP should be doable.

Rod ratio 1.465?

Yup.

What RPM is this monster bringing the goods?

6000 ish

What's the total cost for a N/A big inch engine like this? Parts/Labor/etc.

I don't really know yet. I'm sure we are going to be over $30K. 4 gallon dry sump oiling system alone is pretty expensive and the intake manifold.......... that's not cheap either.

Did I mention what intake manifold I'm going to use? Well it's on order and it looks just like this one only it's going to be a different color

My WIFE takes care of all that end of the building process.

the poor women

The crankshaft was NOT CHEAP either. jeez. But anyways the bottom end will be built to handle way over the 900 hp.

We do have some sponsors as well.

www.laveycraft.com and I have will be helping each other out and thru out plus continue to do so.

Mark aka 900HP has been a huge help - we talk everyday and basically he has free will on the engine side. I do have a say so as well and we talked about IMO our best options along with parts to buy, build process and so on.

john,what drive will this boat have?
