I had a 99 26ZX with a 454 (310) it was way underpowered. Top speed around 53-55. I found a 454 mag and put it in the boat increased speed to high 50's to low 60's. Not certain of the other engine options.

The 502 (415 hp) should run 65-67 mph.

The 502 (415 hp) should run 65-67 mph.
You might get one or two more mph with the 496HO (425 hp).
The 500EFI (470 hp) should run 72-75 mph.

was a test boat with a blown sterling motor, I would run 800hp safely in a 26zx, The boat runs very well at 95 mph after that she gets a hairy.. No one will out run Geo in a Donzi, He is the Master!
