    I have a 19ft Eliminator daytona, a farely heavy layup and am having a motor built that should make around 750 hp. Had the pump setup by Jack at MPD. With that kind of hp about what kind of mph should i be running?

    Hard to believe with only 650.Was he using DJD's GPS unit?
    Classic remark from Bense at one of the last races.."Hey danny, your supposed to peel off that little sticker that says 131 mph before you use it"..Ah shit that was funny.
    Robert,I would think mid 90s with a tail wind going down river is doable.Is the engine supercharged?

    It had as many C.I. as mine, w/ iron merlins and a .650 roller cam. The GPS read 99 mph after running at that speed for about a mile. Tends to leave a pretty good impression on you!
    It was down river....now that I remember so I guess you can scrub off about 4mph. :boxed:

    The motor is not supercharged. It is a 468ci bbc. Afr 315cc cnc ported heads. 12.5 to 1 compression. team g single plane manifold with 1150 dominator. solid roller schneider cam with 274 duration intake 284 exhaust at .050, .660 lift. Engine builder said he built a motor similar to this with 10 to 1 compression and a slightly smaller cam that made 710 hp. I would like to run 100 mph, i do have a NOS big shot system for it if it comes down to it. What kind of power does it tak e to run triple digit mph in a boat like mine.
