I'd put that thing in my Larson, lol. Pretty sick indeed but yeah, $120k seems quite steep considering some of the latest performance boats out there.

Exactly which is why I'm saying LS motors aren't great for boating since they burn oil at those kind of sustained loads.Quote:

Roll bar boats? :lol: you mean wakeboard boats? Don't be jealous of people having more fun at the lake than you.Quote:

I need to come visit you... I've never lived near enough water to drop a boat in.Quote:

Check out the new Seven Marine out board 557. It uses a GM 6.2 with a tvs blower on it.
Those seven marine motors are awesome. I thought they were the LSA with a few small changes to deal with salt water. They are pretty heavy though compared to the merc 300's
