I am building a 1996 38ft fountain fever with 850hp sc efi motors Bmax drives 1.30 ratio spinning 26 pitch Herings. The hull is a twin step but with the early small steps. My question is what speed do you think I will see, the motors are making power up to 6200rpm and I will be propped to that. I appreciate all the input.

Yes this is my existing boat. I was running 103mph before and thought that was a little slow for what I had. I am currently going through everything. I was just looking for input as to what peoples thoughts or experiences were with similar products and if there were any sugestions to increase the speed.
