Wow great speed. Those 32 labs are aggressive for a twin 496 setup...What kind of rpms are getting and how is it getting on plane?

it's a fast...fast hull. My 32' would run 77 and change on 454 carb mags w/ out of the box hydros, and a reasonable X. The 502 EFI boats would run over 80. The 496/425 is strong, and some tweaking of setup has been done since I knew that hull...so totally believable. BTW, to pull down those kind of numbers...obviously a "Velocity driver " behind the wheel! The avg. Joe would never have made 80 mph! At least not without soiling himself! Yea, real big wheels. Mike, I'm humbled by your kind words!!! Where's Mr. Velocity...he's gonna chit!
