I was just wondering is it possible to use a regular nitro car or truck engine in a boat? I have plans to construct a water cool head for the engine but before I begin this endeavor I want to know what the outcome will be since they make so many more RPM's. The plan is to use a 2.5hp 30000 rpm motor in a 43" hydroplane.......... Is it possible?
What size engine are you considering? My reason for asking is a 43" hydroplane is going to be heavy and will need lots of oomph to get it going.
