Default Twin SBC 38 fever with #6 drives on eBay

Saw this on eBay how well would this combination work? Never seen a blown SBC set up like this with # 6 drives. The pics in the description appear to be small blocks with blowers.

Might be a stupid question but whats the difference between 750hp from a small block and 750 from a big block? I'm assuming just torque?

I think torque would be an issue, but maybe it's changed by gearing or prop. Maybe it able to spin high enough RPM to make enough torque to to be as effective as BBCs. I just thought it was an interesting set up for that size of a boat, especially seeing now what the LS family of motors have to offer.

You'd think a little more time could have been spent lining up the tailpipes....and cleaning up the DVD installation too. At least the motors are purity.
Interesting rig for sure.

Nice boat and trailor. 6 drives always look too deep on a 38. I wonder what the centerline is. The fever is Reggies biggest cockpit btw

DVD/Stereo look like DIY project gone bad but the power/drives sure look good!
