Greg Blackmore at LOTO has that package with 509's and B&M 250 blowers, dual carb, and I believe he has seen 94mph in the Shoot-out. Should be near 100 in salt water, with the right chop. Competition Marine Center (St. Charles, Mo.) would know.

Full cabin ,ect .I used to run mid 80s (tripple 240 hp Merc outboards ) on a 30 .a A 34 with the same set up as myself touched 80(the outboards weigh nothing ) .One of the Great Adventure 30 raceboats with twin 500s (no cabin )hit low90s so it is concievable a 34 with 650 could hit mid 90s.Is it staggered ,with a cabin ,ect.
