Even better! :D
You know...the Fords can be stroked very easy, big inch blown Ford would be perfect, pump gas, that sucker would do the job for many years to come.

I was at the KY dragboat races and i guy had a 512 blown motor. 12-71 blue thunder heads bt intake w chevy exhaust. Planning on a 557 bt heads intake roller cam intercooler etc. I would like 1000hp. The boat runs 60 mph with ls6. The distributor and carb are not right. I will pick up 2-3 mph with some adjustments. The boat is in 100 condition.

U guys might think this boat is not that big of a deal but no one has been wet or has had suntan oil on this boat. It is cleaner than a new boat. The drive is the same as topfuel dragboats at the time 1988. I had a friend on KY lake with a new Eliminator 27' twin engine boat. He thought mine was way KOOLER than his. :)
