I build blown 572ci 1000+ hp engines on pump gas for fun, but that dont mean nothing. Here a vid of 2 1100 hp engines I built. It certainly doesnt qualify me anymore than anybody else.

I have been 140mph on gps in that boat and it will go faster ~160mph but not with me in it.
All I am saying is the video basically sucks and really doesn't prove he did it. Harold can you see the speed on the gps I know I cant. 95000rpm 1521 1.5d is awfully fast I thought 60000 was the limit.

The sound of the blowers when the cam lobes over gave me wood. Will you build a motor for my chevelle?

Can't see the gps, but I can read people and situations and followed the progress of that truck all along. IMO he did it to do it, and then he moved on, no BS. He spent his time trying to make a truck go fast, not trick people on youtube.

60,000 is the companys safe limit for neu's. many push them beyond that, and I don't doubt at all that he used a 1.5d on 12s for his speed runs and they lasted. I myself have ran a 7700/kv castle motor on 3s. While they will certainly fail, for all out speed runs you've got to push the envelope.

It's only 68,000rpm at 3.0v/cell!!!

That blower surge gave me wood as well!! I love dual big block boats. My Uncle has 2. A late 80's 29' Scarab Panther with 2 502ci at 600hp each. She's a heavier hull than newer boats but cuts waves with ease, tops out at about 75mph. His other is a 36' Eliminater with 2 572's, not sure which drives, but i've been 104mph on the gps in that boat. That gave me wood as well!

Nic Case was running 12s on the 1521/1Y, just a tad over 70,000 rpm.
