It will be going on a new 22 Liberator and then be for sale after testing. I'm painting the boat now. This is what I started with.

The boat was set to be sold with 300R, paint work, aluminum trailer, and every available option, for $74,900. The 450R adds $30k. Final price will be $105k. Still alot cheaper than a California boat

Wow!!!! Aren't you pushing 110-112 with a 300r and that new prop? The 450r is gonna be a whole new ballgame. Can't wait to see what happens.

I’d sure like to run against the 450 Liberator...it would be epic. I hope it has 122.44 mph in the tank ! I think it just might ??!!! Post up the numbers after you run it, Randy...we are all SUPER INTERESTED in the stats!!

I heard the retail cost of this motor exceeds $60k...

Makes no sense to me... twin 300s, if that true

Ok.... technical question. What’s the fuel burn comparison

400r at WOT = ? GPH
450r at WOT = ? GPH

Where’s that data ? I need it ASAP.

Not $60K. This is the cheap one! Only $54,800!

If I had to guess on the fuel burn at WOT, I would use the 10% rule, which equals about 45 GPH.
