A 80 's "bubble back" 140 rude would push it into the 90 mph range with a cleaver. Those were strong V-4's.
83 V-King, 96 Mariner, 200 hp ff block 2.5 w/a 28p choppa
We gotta clean this liberal mess up, VOTE TRUMP TO MAGA!

The V-4s are very basic motors.
And cheap.
You could do a 120 looper on a shorty mid, fish case w/a cone that would scare the pee out of you.
A 135 cross flow would do the same and be more period correct but honestly, no ones going to be able to tell the difference between the two.
The looper would be easier to get parts for and easily become 150hp + and make a 100 mph rocket.
Having a shiftable case on a toy like that would be a huge benefit too.
Even if your used to a direct drive motor, if your by yourself, especially in a boat like that, it can be a handful.
You should probably just thrown in the towel and send it to me.

I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

Okay sounds great! I'll get to doing my homework. I figured a shorty mid would be tricky to find for the omc.

A shorty V-4 will be hard to find but can also be made.
You need a friend that is a good machinist, welder and fabricator that will work for beer.
There a few around.
Was one just for sale on here.
In Wisconsin maybe???
Wasnt cheap but was well done.
The fish versions are cheap and plentiful.
Cool thing is, you could find/build and 85 cross flow or 90 looper then switch to a 135/140 powerhead later.
Get ahold of Chris Lake (Laker on here) and tell him I sent you.
He is the all knowing on V-4s and may have some spares to sell you.
Regardless of what path you choose, you will end up w/an off the hook show piece that will be an absolute blast to drive and show.
Im jealous.Last edited by Instigator; 01-28-2021 at 07:54 AM.

Well I am the Machinist welder and fabricator. Only thing ive done my entire life.
Nothing i cannot make. So no issue there. Shop full of all new CNC machines.
Remember the 3.2 liter to 2.5 liter stuff that Scott P. designed.? I did all the
machine work on that project. My Action i just rigged I made the fuel fills and thru hulls all out of
6AL4V Ti just because its fun.
Im looking forward to this project and I will for sure make it a show piece with the rigging.
Thank you for all the intel Instigator.!
I sent you a PM.
Thanks
Dago.
