I'm going to build a pair 650HP motors, & see what happens, I know I may need to swap to -1 lowers down the road to get her dialed in, anyone else care to share their set-up?

I'll tell you, if you tell me:
How much does your boat weigh?
How fast does it go now?
How much horsepower do you have now?
