Gary,
The setup you have now is about as good as it gets in a Y2k. You know the boat in and out and it's best setup with a single.

If you want to go real fast buy/build a 32-36ft twin engine CAT.

I wonder how many orders JC would need to build a new and or strech the y2k for a big block twin.:party-smiley-004:

It might be OK if you build all aluminum engines to keep the weight down.
That Y2K with the twin 6.2s used to be kept on a canal close to my wife's cousin on the south shore. That boat sits real low in the water.

I wonder how a short stagger would work ???

Na... you'd loose the back seat. I think we've gone around on this one before.
Gary, if you want a 100+mph Y2K, swap your drive for a Konrad or a Speedmaster and bolt on a blower...
Boating season must be over now that the wild dreams are spilling out...:lolhit:
