You can hear the roar of the fuel going thru the fuel lines. LOL

The Yamaha F350 can really suck down some fuel too. I ran a big Grady White with triples. At WOT it was pulling nearly 100gph between all three.

providing 1050 hp at 100 gallons per hour is pretty efficient. HP takes fuel, regardless of whether its 2 stroke, 4 stroke, FI, DFI, or carb. If you want to go fast, its going to cost

But how fast are you going with 1050hp running wot?

[captpete13]

It wasn't as fast as you would think. It was a heavy boat. I can't remember how fast exactly. I think low 50's. But the roar of those V-8's really sound great.
