We messed with spacers a little and props but we were only using 4 blade props 5 blade would sure have helped the situation. But at the time we didn't have that option. And we didn't have boxes on the boat the drives were on the transom.

here's a read from a few years back...really don't need to go much past page 30

Scarab AVS 33 will run:
454 MPI 71 mph~ 502 MPI 76 mph 500 HP 82 mph 600 DPX 92 mph I have both powerboat magazines. They loved the boat. |
My uncle had a 98 that was on the cover of power boat. He bought it from a guy in Mich. that was a dealer . the boat came with 500 efi he put 525's with intercooler's and changed the cams to a roller. boat ran mid 90's and on a agood day high 90's

We had speedmaster number V drives. we ran a 17.5 X 29p that worked the best the bullets were I think 3 inches below the bottom but I not sure.

Exact answer I was looking for, boat got dangerous in the single digits? Did it have boxes or shortys? I gained absolutely zero on my old boat with the stellings box and went backwards actually, went backwards even worse with the shorty plus got to see god at 95 mph sideways with the shorty so not in a bog hurry to do either but I have read now several times they give positive results on these hulls.

How fast will a 33 AVS run with a pair of mild 1000hp blower motors, how fast with 1100 hp, anyone have decent power in one on here? How much hp to run 90 or a 100? Just bought a nice 99 with hp 500 efi's and exploring what my first big mods will be over this winter, thanks, Smitty

Fast foraward from 13 months ago, my 33 a vs runs 85 gps on fumes w 2 people and hp 500efis under perfect conditions, the only mod on engines is turned rev limiters up slightly. Building a efi NA 540 to test 500 efi intake mods on , dynoing it at my shop soon. If i reach my hp goal of 700ish duplicating a 2nd motor to it and putting them in my 33 in the spring.
