Is it possible?

[Lakeman (Allison)]

Is it possible for a untouched, stock 225 hp on any 20 ft boat (bass boat with a working live well, with all seats and trolling motor) to run 100mph?

A guy a work says that it is not possible, I disagree. He bet me $500 that he is right. I will give $400 to anyone who proves him wrong. He knows a mechanic that will have to make sure that the motor is stock before you run.

I think that a stock 225 hp xb2002 bass boat will run 100 mph. (my 2 cents) :confused

I would say a XB2002 Comp Pro or Fassbas with a 225x set-up for top end only would hit 100 mph. I can't prove it though...just my .02

Mine runs 96 right now. I have a prop with a little more pitch that I am going to run this weekend that might get me a little more. With a 1.75 gearcase, I think I would be knocking on 100's door for sure. And that's on a standard layup XB03. An XB02 should easily do it. That's a bone stock 225X with only a little reshaping done on the gearcase.

did it with a 2002 and a 225 Pro-Max

 

[Lakeman (Allison)]

100mph would be $400.00 to you. $4.00 per. mph

 

[Lakeman (Allison)]

Myron do you still have the boat.

Bass and Walleye Boats ran 101.8 with an XB2003 and a 225 SS Promax, so I'd say he owes you $500. I can send you the article for a LOT less than $500. Let me know. :smile

 

[sidvishus]

can you email me a copy of the article? I lost my original.

thx.sid

 

[Lakeman (Allison)]

He would wont to see it in person. To make sure the motor is stock. Thats the thing. If i show him that, He would say something was done to the motor..

 

[Lakeman (Allison)]

If you can email a copy of the article to me. i can try to show him. and get my $500.00

 

[FlatOutAlly]

PM me your email addy

 

[Hotprop]

Yes 100 percent can be done !!! I have done it . 2002 with 225 pro max

 

[Lakeman (Allison)]

Hotprop - do you still have the 2002 with 225 pro max.

 

[Hotprop]

My friend has the boat now . The engine has never been apart. 1997 pro max on a 2002 .

 

[Lakeman (Allison)]

hotprop- No parts added to motor.

 

[Hotprop]

Nope Its Stock .

 

[Lakeman (Allison)]

hotprop - Can your friend get it to 100mph. and he gets $400.00 . and can he come down here. or i can ask the guy at work would he come to tenn.

 

[Myron]

I do not have that rig anymore, it was a 1995

My front seat fits on the ski pylon. My Bilge pump can be called a live well pump. Can somebody send me a 32" sumptin sumptin? I know I can bust 100 with a lil sumptin sumptin!!

be careful of what he calls stock
will the sport master lower unit make it to 100 with out blowing out or does it need some tweeking done to it
and i would think that you could find all the proof in the apba records set by the allisons in the past years
