only got 1 call on it ,yes last hot boat I was trying some props that a friend had and the best I got was 124 mph. I think it realy needs a 5 blade my slip was at 18 % with a 32 on it.

What outdrive and prop are you running on that thing.

racinjason65

XR with upgraded shafts 1.36 ratio and I have a couple Cutting Edge Propellers that I run depending on how the boat is set up.

Can you run pump gas? I would love to have a 306 with 725 Ilmors.

yes I run pump gas

racinjason65

I'll run 7-7.5 lbs of boost on pump gas and run 119 mph. But I do my boating in Arizona, where they are adding 10% ethanol on gas at the pump, I try and stay away from that and use 100 octane unleaded when I run 8-10 lbs of boost and 110 for 10-14 lbs. Both are available at the pump in Havasu.

I personally think the Ilmor's are overrated, they are light and make good power stock. But if you need to get parts for them they are very expensive and modifying them for more power is ridiculously expensive.
