Default How Much HP ???

Ok we know Rob is going to have a azz kicking twin small block Y2K that runs at 100 mph !!!!! But I still like that big single monster !!! So the question is, what amount of HP do we need to run the SUPER K at 100 + !!!!

Well Faster has hit 94 with 801HP and is still dialing in.
My guess is that a 900HP single or twin 500HP to crack 100mph.
Now which out-drive are you going to use with 900HP?

900 should do it, or maybe 850

I'm surprised this hasn't been proven already.

No doubt we can make big HP for tripple digits !!!!! But the drive becomes the issue, I was hoping for the mini 6 but thats not gonna happen. So what are my choices for say 900/1000 hp ????

Arneson. Bravo1 XR if you go easie. #3 #5 the only problem is that you will need trainies which could throw off your balence.

Stormrider. It was. A few years back MRD built a 850 HP for a Y2K, first run was 104. It was brought back to the dock and put on the trailer. It was to go in a boating magazine. It was trailered to Florida, put in the water, started up and ideling. 4 minutes later it sucked a valve.

How do you know mini6 isn't going to happen.
I'd throw on a konrad w/ an extension box.
probably 15K for the package.
