AT does not use a conservative X dim at all. I would think a 2" raise would be too much.

Active Thunder 37' & other Factory boats, 13' Mini Hawk
Clark has a buddy that spent a lot of time dialing in a 37 in TX with 12" Stelling boxes. It worked well, but it was not a turnkey setup right out of the box.

Rich tried just about every single B1 combination/derivative drive on his 37 with Whippled 525s. The best performance was right back with standard XRs.

If it isn't running triple digits you will be disappointed. What power?
