Or I should say a customers mill landed in the shop. What a piece of work this thing is.

Going in a 27ft cat we been working on all spring.

Extensive rework, quarter cap and blend, new interior seating gauges.

Very very nice ride when its all over. Open checkbook rework.

I thought exactly the same thing

Yes I meant a supercharged big block.

I believe its a 572 (9.3L) so its going to need a lot of wind.
The 5 liter whipple charger should fit the bill.

Not really those were mostly big V hulls. Big wave crushing beasts 40ft+
Cigarette is the known brand name pretty sure the most known on that show was a WellCraft- the model they called the "Scarab" were the type boats on Miami vice.

This is a 27 ft cat. An air entrapment hull - very very fast.

OMG, a blower on a 572. Even conservatively tuned that is an amazingly powerful setup.

Love the water cooled headers, those are gorgeous...
 
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ I was thinking about putting a World Products 1000 HP engine in My flat bottom but before I could decide my neighbor bought the boat. There was a 2 year warranty at the time on the engine. It was around 2002. There re soem real neat boats out there.
 
Beautiful looking engine!
This is/was my buddies 468 blown big block jet drive youngblood boat. Top speed was only around 87 but it got you there in a hurry!
Like most things like this, it was a money pit, especially the fuel costs so he sold it and purchased a 300 H/P Merc outboard on a version of a pickle fork. His top speed in this boat is currently at 107 mph GPS's.

I miss the jet boat as it was less nerve racking than his new one, which has been over, unfortunately!
