Saw this on Boatreader.com. Can you really get 380hp out of an OB engine? Probably sounds like a dumb question to most of you, but DAMN, that is a lot of horises and that boat shoudl scream and fly if it is possible.

Fish,

just to answer your question it very much so possible my dad has a few motors that gordon montegue has built one being a 3.0 liter v6 and it is putting out over 330 hp and he also has twin 4.0 liter on his big boat that gordon built putting out 410 h.p. a peice.. so yes it is possible!!

Damn! Thanks for the education Action 17, I had no idea. That's a lot of HP to slap on the back of a screamer/flyer.

That would be a sweet ride. I think Tony (speedreacer) is putting his XP V8 on a similar boat.

When I move up it will be either a 21 Elim or Talon like that one. V8 or maybe... twin Xflows :D

21 Elim, 21 Liberator... dare I say... same thing :eek: LOL!

Seriously, I rarely buy new and I see more 21 Eliminators than Liberators used. Last time I bought new was when I bought my Honda ST 1100. That is a motorcycle not an outboard guys :rolleyes:

;) ;)

I read somewhere that Skater owner Peter Hledin's son is getting 400+HP from the new 300X.
