    Since every one else is running their numbers, I'll toss in mine just confuse the issue deeper!!
    - Berkley SS "B", 5600 RPM @ 3200 ft = 98 MPH.
    - 21' aluminum Eagle Tunnel. Impressive numbers to say the least with a 21' hull eek! .
    Could you post a pic?

    The 29' is going to be winter project. This photo was taken last week at Sylvan Lake. It's going to be a very cool ride when completed.

    JB, I'd say your race boat's light and very well setup. Nice numbers.
    Posted by FordTech: I am running 5000 rpm's with a "A" impeller at 5500 - 6000 foot above sea level, depending on the lake. Any idea on the possible horse power of this engine at sea level??
    Assuming yours is a Berkeley "A" According to impeller curves, you're seeing about 395 hp at 5000 rpm. Of course, Berk impeller curves are for stock pumps not modified. So assuming your pump is stock, you'll see about 500 hp at sea level just based on altitude pressure effects. i.e. same temp, wx and humidity conditions as your 5500 ft altitude rpm data point...only a lower altitude.
    About 100 hp more. Not bad huh?
