Mine goes 100 GPS "only in my dreams".
Supposedly if I went to a SVS and upped my present 7K limiter [no oil injection] and removed my windshield, I could be close. It is just not worth it when I can jump into a Friend's training wheel boat and do it easily.

John,
I built a 225 PM for Chris Justice a few years ago on an STV RR BUT the motor wasn't stock. I just confirmed with Chris so I would get the data accurate and correct , it ran 108 ( GPS ) with an XR6 gear case with 1:78 gear turning a 32 pitch wheel 7200 rpms.. Very light RR...I wasn't there but I do remember it was very fast and it hurt a few guys feelings...
He also told me they ran the same motor with a speed master and it later ran 119..
This motor wasn't stock BUT was a pump gas motor...
I know you didn't ask for modified numbers but I thought I'd throw this info in the mix as it WAS a pump gas motor I seem to remember he sold it to a guy that ran the motor for years with no issues..

He runs a few different props, but I would guess a 28 Hoss Triton. I don't believe the limiter has been changed. Wish I had better particulars, but he rarely logs on anymore, and I usually only see him once a year.

Nothing at the 200 shoot out was stock. Most had 260 electronics, SVS etc. etc. Stock ported 200 fishing blocks.
Waterwings, skittles aka jeff down here had a 225 pmax that was indeed STOCK it ran right at 100 with me in the back seat. Same boat as yours
Couple shots I took

A buddy of mine ran a stock CARB Promax on an Eagle One @103mph with a 32" Merc 4 blade Cleaver. That was with little setup and a coned 200 1.87 case.
