    Hey Dan, had my dad (who you met at the Parker 300 in 2009) measure his #6's and #4 and they are 9.5" C/L of the propshaft to the midsection mating surface. Hope that helps.

    I'm not sure exactly how much I'd give up to own a Molanari with a real F1 V8, but it would be a lot! Definitely the coolest ****e ever built as far as I'm concerned.

    Exactly, not a problem back in the day. Seems to be a big problem now though. There's a big thread on S&F of people who need belts.

    They all stretch and then will eventually break. One of his powerheads even had some make shift tensioner on it that someone built to try to keep the belt useable. I have one of his here that is...

    Great footage. How are your timing belts holding up? My dad has a T2x on a 16' Allison and every time he runs it, it stretches or breaks the timing belt.

    Ron, boat #48 was Bill and his dad right? The guys that almost went over? Bill told me that motor was an old 2.4 he ran in the late 80's with nothing special done to it.

    2000# boat with an S-3000 will run 115? I'd like to see that. What kind of power are those supposed to make?

    I just don't see many privateers getting ahold of S-3000 motors. In the last enduro,...

    Why have a weight break? All the boats should weigh the same. There wasn't any propshaft height breaks for the guys running the stock 200.

    I still say add balast to make weight, let the rest of the setup/engine go to the teams. It's way easier to measure a 2000# boat than to try to limit RPM or engine mechanicals, and anything that...

    How would you monitor the rev limit though? I know I don't want my motor limited by the Merc ECU (rev limit or fuel curve).

    Weight is still the easiest to check.

    I still think the propshaft deal is a bad thing. A lot of these boats (apparently the Stokers, and the STV's for sure) were setup to run the motor higher. Their handling will be based on how much...
