1964 17' Lavey Craft Flatbottom.
390ci Bored .30 over. Chet Herbert cam, not sure of the exact specs, but it is 570ish lift. Edelbrock Street Master manifold single plane with holley 750.
any ideas? here is a pic of it taking off from the no wake zone in Lake El-skumore.

Sorry, the calculator doesn't work for v's just ask Kindsvater. But since that's a v-drive I'll guess it does about 100. Give or take a few.

jer LVjetqueen I here they might need some music at CFW Maybe you could DJ out of your boat to make up for some of the Money you would owe from losses to the V-Dives. Ive got a better Idea I'll bring up my boat that doesnt run and you can bring up your boat that doesnt run and we can have an ore or paddle race and you can calculate are mph with all of your know how!!! :D :D
