Default Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??

I was just wondering how many are out there. Let's see if we can round 'em up!!

I know of:
Bill Proctor's Spider Boat
Ruckus
Runnin with the Devil
Primal Instinct
Old School II (mine)

Let's see what you have got. Post pictures and power.

Mine is a 1988 Kevlar boat which originally had 750 Hawks and #3's. It is currently running Sonny Leonard quad rotor 588's (1200HP) 1450 trannies and wet-sump #6's.
Soon it will be running 600ci naturals with the 6's.

Well I'll be damned, it still floats. Took it out for about an hour just going easy on it and doing a little tuning. I need to add second idle air control valves to each motor as it just doesn't move enough air to compensate for the large props on the shift, but I'll get that handled soon. Otherwise, it ran pretty well. I need to do some datalogging to make sure expected AFR and actual AFR are matching up as well as make sure my fuel system is keeping up before I really start to lean on it. It's going to be a process, but hopefully slow and steady keeps me from hurting another motor.
