Here are the guys dyno stats

So the dyno numbers are in. Race fuel and 16,Ibs boost 1360HP, 93 octane 10,Ibs boost 1015HP.

Thanks guys I have been reading a bunch of old post and their are some good ones. One post has Kip Combs 300 Convincor which had the first notch cut in the back. I have found a hand full of Checkmates that have ran 100+ I am going to start a thread for mates that ran 100+
 
Red, thats cool !!! you bored at work ?? oh by the way I ran 106 last week in my 251..............but then I woke up :sleep:
 
while on the 100 mph thing did the brown milk 280 ever get sold ?? I know he bought a fountain and was still for sale last I knew...didn't that bust a 100 ?

I have a 2001 300 Convincor with a single engine and a #6 drive. We mounted the tranny in an extension box so the motor is in a stock bravo location. It took over two years to get the setup correct but the boat handles very well and to date we have seen 112 on gps.
112.m.p.h:confused: I sure would like to that one day.maybe we can go for a ride.with a gps.:thumb:
 
Hey Guys,

What happened to Dave, was one day he got ticked off and unfortunately stopped coming around. I'll spare you the gorey details, it's too bad really. :(

Dave also used to hang out a bit on OSO as well, and he also seemed to disappear from there as well.

In the supporter's section of the gallery, there is actually a small video of Dave's motor running. :)

Interesting stuff. I had a 540ci tall block NA with 740hp built for my 69 Camaro convertible (yeah, overkill but fun!) and always thought that it would work so much better in my Persuader. then i could put a more civil motor in the camaro. Not sure what 740hp would do in the boat, but i'm tempted to simply build another one ;)
