They've built several over 100mph and its a big enough boat to handle it. Think 1200hp and single #6.

So here is the scoop! 602 cubic inches and 1187 HP at 5500 ft of elevation. They ran out of injector or it would have made more. I have personally drove quite a few 27 Victory's (buddy in Austin was a Advantage dealer here in New Mexico before moving his Business to Austin) Absolutely love them! I would imagine yours runs extremely good in Havasu!
The Motor for the Lavey has not been assembled yet....just had to decide to supercharge or not before assembly. Motor starts to go together next week and would imagine that I will have dyno results in two or three weeks.

Stay tuned!

Mine is a stock 500efi (502 cu), I for sure want to come down to Navajo and have that beer with you. My uncle lives down in Aztec.

Right on GAZ! We have a awesome crew of friends and boats plus two house boats that get a little nutty after the sun goes down. Damn good times.....I will keep you posted and let me know a weekend or holiday that works for you.

Have to warn you though the girls tops tend to come off.
