If it is not a #6 or Weisman, it will be shortly. :hammerhea
My neighbor put a Phaff 960 hp in a Daytona. Hit 111 on GPS. He thinks he can get 115 with a new prop
The engine is a EFI 588ci with M4SC Procharger. Im planning on 9-10 lbs boost at about 1300hp.(this isnt the first one of these I have done) I have a Imco 4x4 drive on the 27 now with the transmission inside the set back box. I have had great luck with Imco extreme drives up to 1150hp, but this is the first 4x4 I have tried.
Vodkarocks - I had a 27 Daytona last year with a teague 800 carb that ran 115.8mph on gps. It was the red/gray on the cover of Powerboat Magazine so Im sure 960hp will go faster with the right setup.
Eliminator, good luck with the setup....I am always interested to see how the upgraded bravo's hold up that power, specifically the 4x4...It always seems like it is more the driver than drive...

Good luck on the 4x4 I tried them and distroyed four of them !!!!!!they will NOT !!!! hold up over 1000 hp . 1400 HP at 1.22 ratio ,30 x 15.5 five blade hydromotive prop, 4x4 drive ,Daytona 26 ( same hull as the 27 ) got me to 141.9 mph at 6500 rpm, 598 cu in, Whipple Quadrotor 3.3,dual dom 's 1150's,
at Parker at the PowerBoat mag Shootout. I now have a Weisman surface drive on it and so far I can't break it.I,m building a new motor with much more power and will be at the Desert Storm Poker Run in April at Havasu for a speed run to run over 150mph. Bring yours and lets see what she will do. With the right prop and setup and perfect water you should be able to run around 135 ,maybe more.there was two different huls made one is faster than the other. I have a lot of info on the 4x4 drive and big power on the 26/27 hulls so PM me for more.
Thanks for the info Rock-it man.
