Dam i wish i was there to feel and hear the power of the monster in person. Words or a video can never describe the feeling and sound of an ol' big block chevy barking.
150 bridge heading down river toward marker 17! Marshall Steam Station in the background....coming back up river it looks like...lol...been coming to this lake since 1968! I know every nook and cranny. A little chilly out there in Jan ain't it? lol
@666posiedon sircrash a lot is right the Chevy Big Blocks were never designed to push high RPMS mainly torque in the lower revs to push that engine any harder is running the risk of damage and really wont produce any more horsepower. if you want high RPMs go with the small block you can push them to 13,000 all day if they are built right.
oh my gosh! its that bridge!! i know it doesnt sound much but its the one i went under when i had the best day ever i had a vacation @ lake lure which is a few hours away so we rented a boat at lake norman and it was the best vacation i ever had and that was my favorite part driving the boat :) how is it down there in nc?
I know it's an old post but I'm moving to the Charlotte area and am interested in the current laws regarding jet boats with above water exhaust on both Lake Norman and Lake Wylie. Anyone have any input on what you can and can't get away with?
I do it from time to time... 8500 actually as shown by the rpm memory feature of the Tach. Not on purpose mind you, it happens when I disregard the shift light in 1rst gear on launch. The rpm's come up too quickly. Look for Harold Torres Racing on Yahoo you'll see.
My uncle has his jet boat in the bakcyard and our family boat is a 2007 Malibu but my uncle's pipes are as big and loud as yours u can hear it across the lake im scared when he goes fast cause u cant hear shit and the boats just sliding on the water and when u hit waves the boat hella bounces.. lol and im 14 wow but dang thats nice my uncles is red and white.
if you come to Lake Norman doing 105 you'll get blown away by a bass boat...lol...i have a remote control hydro that will do that! bring your little 105 and the registration to LKN and i'll show you the new owner....if you got the balls! roflmao
Badass is not a good discriptor of this boat. It's way beyond that. Just plain fucking sick get's the point accross better. Anyone guess the top speed here? I am thinking in the 70-75 MPH range.

Nice to see another jet boat on LKN. Thought I had the only one.
mrpattyjohnson my dad had a jet boat just like this. built it himself
Good to see you wearing your PFD, even at these SLOW speeds!!!
THAT'S what i'm talkin about !! YEAH BABY!!
sick engine :D
luv this sound!!!!!!!
AWSOME!
nice boat !!
That thing is bad ass
Very nice.
remember, in a car it fine
on water, there no real load so those high rpm with no load can damage the engine
Monera96 correct ... not great idea to run engine that high on these big blocks
At 30 seconds he went from Ludicrous speed right to technicolor !!!

That'll wake up the neighbors.
Sounds good. I think you need to find a happy medium with a boat, too big or too much power can ruin the fun
I'd assume that he gets to his fishin spot pretty fast lol
Awesome boat, how fast did you go?
@RichardEllisxyz You sound like my neighbor ;) Its all good though, we each have our own idea of fun! Nice Bahner JRT

alright! lets go tubing!
yeah, nice!
Well, there went ten gallons of gas.. I bet its fun as hell though...nice
There went at least 10 gallons 🤓
@gratscot Actually, most state run lakes, do have speed limits lol
I want that fucking boat
how many gallons per hour fuel need for chevy 454 installed on this boat??????
anybody know why theres white smoke comin out of the pipes at the beginning? do they have water injection to keep the pipes cool or what?
I think he went into plaid there for a second.
How do you cope with the noise? I don't see you wearing ear protection.
fuckin sweet!
@16webb16 Why the hell would he have to speed the clip up to show the power of this engine? Have you ever seen the size of a 454 in person?
light em up !
it sounded like the RPMS were only hittin arond 4 grand where it should go to like 7 grand
Clip is sped up, u can see the cars going by a lot faster
so how much fuel did you use?
how fast does she go
is this jet or prop?
you fish with this boat?
can you say me how fast it is and the hp ... please mail back
shifting to warp speed!!!!!! then you look at the water and it has a trail of fire lol
How fast?
@bowmaster24 cause its obvious. the cars are going like 200mph
@RichardEllisxyz lol wow, like some cheese with that whine?

Cup Holders infront of the engine!
