260 top speed?
Just curious how fast people have got the 260 to run with what engines? I just put a 700 hp 496 in mine. Still working on dialing it in but its pretty fast.

We ran 70 with 2 people and 1/4 tank. hitting the rev. lim. at the toys for tots run 2 weeks ago I had a 260 with a 310hp 454 back in 1998 and it ran 66 mph. I think the fastest one witha 375 hp was Bill applejuice mixions it ran 73 with a hot rod 27 hydro. by Mike at hulls.

I bought my boat from Bill Jennings. He lives in Ft. Meyers. The boat used to have a 375/ 496. He wrote a review on it in Poker Runs America magazine in 2005. Volume 8, Number 8.
Says it Ran 74.3 in the article.
Guess I had the wrong Bill. Saw you were in Ft. Meyers and thought it might be the same Bill.
