We did build a Pantera 28' ( non stepped ) with twin 525 EFI's that I personally ran right at 93-94 MPH on GPS.

With twin Mercury 500 EFI's there was 3 of them built and they would all run between 89-92 MPH.

Now with the newer T.S. bottom the 28' SR are approximately 10 % faster .

It's look like more people got the idear Jo !

Would be a hot set up if I make another ls like I have for my 21 ft toy and put them staggered in a 28 sr from you !

I think it would touch the 100 mark !

Hey look at these boats that are only 21ft with over 1000hp in most of the. Cant one single person tell me you cant do it with a pantera and make it work(http://forceboats.com/Gallery_F1_race_s.html)

Reason I asked this is because with the old iron engine and bravo drive packages, there is only 133lbs difference in weight between the big blocks and small blocks... alot less that I'd ever think. Sure, you'd have that x2- but still thats only 266lbs over small blocks!

It'd work, no doubt.. my friend Bill is running a single somwhere around 1600hp in a 300 convincor with a #6... no reason you couln't do the same in a 28 Pantera T.S., I'd think.

But I'm really liking the idea of a full staggard twin setup in an easy to store and transport boat that will handle most anything I'm likely to run into:drink:
