I know there is a twin 1600 hp boat being prepared(not at NC) and they are Sterlings-I think. I may be going down for the attempt so I'll let you know. It will be soon.

Should be interesting if they can live the distance.

The XXX boat had Injector hats on it. I bet it probably was more hp than they claimed.
Its not hard build a 2000 Blown alcohol motors. look at the Fastest street car shoot out motors . There 2500-2700hp now.and the small block Turbo motors are higher.

My guess would be Troy Dennis if he is still around. Reggie used him a lot in the past. He built the alcohol motors that were in Jack Carmody's Fountain that Reggie st the record at 131.94 back 95 or 96 with.
