Probably 75-77mph. Twin 502mpi boats run 78-80.

Sounds about right. There is one in VA with twin 454 mag 365hp here on OSO. The owner said it would run about 75.

Berns29scarab,

Dom Z up at Lake George has a twin 496 HO (425hp) that I believe was running 80 to 82. I think mid to high 70's with twin 496 ( 375 hp ) would be on the money.
