Ok lets all do the math, example # 1, say 1, 1000 HP ( All brands Merc. JCPERF, ETC. ) And a # 6 Drive, How Much ???.................example # 2, say two 500 HP ( All brands ) and two bravo XR's How Much ???

Re: Prices ?
525 w/xr was around 25K each so call it 50K plus steering
1000hp w/ #6 was like 80ish 1000hp= lots o' upkeep 525=warrenty #6= bullit proof xr= rebuild based on your ease of use |
Re: Prices ?
500 hp on a XR would be a strong PKG, never heard of a 100 hour rebuild on an XR ????
|
Re: Prices ?
I ment the XR isn't going to last forever... Some guys have better luck then others... But the 525's are popping drives also, not as much as the 575sc-600sc but there are still problems for merc to fix...

Re: Prices ?
Hey Rob,
I don't think we're going to fit two BBCs in a 30' Super so lets talk SBCs... Merc. 320HP/6.2 with a Bravo drive is about 16K. Add a Whipple kit to get close to 500HP for another 6K. I don't think it's necessary, but if you insist Gary, upgrade to an XR, add 3K. 25K per side, the same as a big-block package. 50K total for 1000HP worth of engines and drives; Is that a lot of $$? I guess not compared to 80K for a single 1000 and #6 drive... |
Re: Prices ?
I still think it's the way to go. You guys are'nt thinking of the additional expense of Bigblocks.
Custom engine hatch $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Deck and liner has to be modifyed, major glasswork$$$$$$$ **Twin smallblocks- No modifications, Major savings !!$ :) |
Re: Prices ?
But a single 1000 hp setup should go faster than a 2 engine setup equalling 1000hp, right? You have one less drive in th ewater and you have less weight. Therefore, couldnt you go with about 800-900 hp to equal the twin setup? Maybe you wouldnt need a #6.

Re: Prices ?
I would go with a JC Perf 900hp and an Imco Drive. Oh wait that is what I did. Can't wait to see some of you guys on the water this summer......... :D

Re: Prices ?
No. I do not have a Superboat. The 900hp is in a 29 Progression. Still dialing it in but we have seen 97 so far with plenty more to go. The boat rides awsome and with the right set up we should see 103-105. This is my goal for the summer!!
We have had it out three times so far and she loves the power. Very stable and the ride is second to none. This is my second Progression but the first over the tripple mark. I heard Jeff did a motor for a Y2k and I believe it is being freshend right now to break the 100 mark also. You will have to ask him how it rode though because I have not seen it. Don |
Re: Prices ?
I believe the Imco drive with the Heavy Duty Gimbal, Extension Box, Two inch shorty polished lower and steering was like 15k give or take. But that is complete. I started with a new hull from scratch.
The engine you will have to talk to Jeff about. Give him a call. He is always available to talk to new clients. |
Re: Prices ?
I am on the phone with JC right now. He said to tell all you guys that he will be able to talk pricing during Superfest over plenty of Cuervo's.
