    250R vs 300R

    After I win the lotto, and buy a V8:

    does the 300R make more power then the 250R everywhere or just at top end?

    Price tags aside--The 250R is a 250 ProXS with a sportmaster lower but of course hand built. The 300R has some mechanical and electronic differences! 250R rev limiter 6200---300R 6400 limiter

    300r rated at 316 hp at 6250 and 311 ftlb at 5000.

    250r rated at 276 hp at 5500 and 312 ftlb at 4500.

    I’d guess the 250 makes a hair more low end torque and a bit less top end power; midrange being nearly identical.

    Data courtesy CARB off-road database on the junkiest fuel you can get.

    Torque seems pretty close. 276 HP would be enough for my Tuff 24. Where is my lotto money?

    If you win the lotto, might as well go with 360 APX

    The RPM on the 300R will come in handy with the 24!
