What are you running this motor in?  A lake rocket or something for the ocean?  You into drag boats or hydros?

Speed on the water is unreal - probably one of the most intense sensations of any type of speed as the water magnifies the rush.

I used to be heavy into the outboard drag scene here in the Northeast - still always keep my eye out for an old v-drive with big block power.

Wanna put it in a 12' fiberglass for starters. Should be a simple setup theoretically. Theres no feeling in the world like going 100+mph on the water. Not to mention theres nothing like the sound of a big block marine engine running full bore with straight pipes! I go to every poker run I can in Ontario to watch the offshores and some of those things are just unbelievable!

This boat has twin 2000hp gas turbine engines and has done about 195 or so. One of the fastest boats in north America and definitely the fastest boat in Canada. One of the baddest machines on the planet.
