Re: 34' Powerquest performance
 

A buddy has a 2000 34' Viper with 454's. 28' B1 props. I never thought of it having any trouble coming out of the hole. I think it is right at 70mph??????
It also has drive spacers. Would it come with those from PQ?

Very nice boat, but he's trying to sell it. His wife wants a cruiser. I think I'll have to beat her up.

The drive spacers would have helped tremendously as far as planing time,,,I have no idea if the factory sent any boats out with them.. As posted previously, the claimed they were working on the problem,,,so maybe they tried drive spacers to help,,,,who knows..

70 with 454's ????

Good looking ride, wish it was time for me to buy again :evilb:

It can be just sell your to Jim :D

Had to be mags - even then it would have to be set up right.

You could turn yours easily - time to start looking for something new. :D

You and Scott could both get Cats.

Re: 34' Powerquest performance
 

yep. maybe more like 68-70. Plain ol 454 MPI's. All stock. Nice ride, love the head room.

Re: 34' Powerquest performance
 

That is one efficient hull if 454 mpi's are turning 28 inch props.

Re: 34' Powerquest performance
 

You had me second guessing the prop pitch. Just double checked, 28" B1's, not labbed.

Re: 34' Powerquest performance
 

Wally, you should buy this boat. Fits just what you need, and it will fit on your lift too.

Re: 34' Powerquest performance
 

Man, I would think long and hard about a 34 with only 454's. The PQ 34's are a much better boat with the HP500's. And they look really nice in the engine bay!! :drink: :drink:
