    Mike, check out Brendan Murray's ad atragboats.com (http://dragboats.com/classified/allads.asp?type=10) . He has a used BDS manifold for $285.
    So, 94 mph isn't enough? Go get em'!

    when you can drive the boat with only one hand on the wheel at that speed the excitement tends to fade quickly. i want to know what 100+ mph feels like on the water so i'm adding some more power.

    Prop hater??? You know you could probably do well over 100 with your single four motor in a v drive.

    ya it would. actually it would go that fast with even less power. but my shot at vdrives is nothing more than a reference to the classic vdrive/jet boat battle. plus i used to own one so i dont actually hate them.
