Single engine, how much power?
 
If you have a single engine boat, vote for your power range here. If you have a twin or triple engine boat vote on the twin or triple engine power poll.

I will post a graph of total boat HP vs. the # of OSO members. We will also find out how much total HP is under the control of OSO members!:eek:

Are we voting for what we got? What we tell everyone what we got? or what we are wishing we had?

Remember, there is NO such thing as TOO MUCH Horsepower!

velocitymania 12-21-2002 09:55 PM

I had a 1998 Velocity 260 with a blown 540, 800 hp, 104mph on GPS. Traded last year to a Velocity VR1 with the same motor set up. Still dialing it in. Looking for 107mph. By the way, I went through five drives last summer. Problemed solved with new unit
from Emco.
P.S. Dialing in my partner's Velocity 390 with twin KE 675's. To get a glimpse of this boat, check out WWW.4bigboytoys.com. Go fast or go home!

This motor powers my 1989 27' Activator. I did not build this engine therefore I have no idea what it is or what hp it produces.
It came in the boat that I bought this year.
Supposedly it is a 496" Stroker.

WETTE VETTE 12-22-2002 08:37 AM

Never dynoed, but comparable motors have made 750 plus on Lukavich Racing's dyno. 498" Chev with 13.2:1 compression, fully ported 325 Pro 1 heads, comp solid roller cam (272/280 @.050 on 112+4, .714" lift), full MSD, Nickerson stage 5 1050, Merlin single plane, Jesel shaft rokers, and many other goodies. Pushes my Baja 210 to a best GPS speed of 97.8 MPH.:hothead:
