One of my neighbours has a 24' Powerquest, and he is looking to move up to a bigger boat. He was looking at the Formula open bow, the 272 I think, and we were talking about the ZXO.
Which motor option would give him at least 70 MPH.....reaching Donzi's 80 MPH claim would be nice, but I don't see anything on their option list that would get you there....

"As if that wasn’t enough to separate it from the crowd, this boat reaches speeds in excess of 80 mph. ensuring that you’ll completely leave everyone else in your wake."

Twin small blocks should get to the 70 mph mark easily.

I've got the ZXO with twin small blocks and have had it up to 72 on the GPS. I believe that the Scorpion package will get you 80+.

Boxy, The twin 350 Mags will get you 70-72mph The Scorpions 76-78 the 6.2 Twins 72mph a 496/425 65mph and a 500efi will run 70mph. I would go with the 350 Mags :spongebob

5.7 ltr , 260 hp get's my ZXO to 70 mph quick, & clean plus added handling capability with twins.
