Years ago I had a 24' Superboat with a Gale Banks twin turbo 454/TRS drive. It worked incredibly well but the little MercTrans tranny was the weak link. It spun a 29 Mirage Plus 6000 rpm! It was a handful.

I had a 1976 Superboat 24 ft that I put a 454 with Gale banks twin turbo set up running 12 lbs of boost. I painted the the boat yellow and also removed the trs and put a bravo 1 on it with lathem steering. I never really experimented with props , but at that time it was running over 85 (1995) . I wonder where it is now? Tom
