Thanks. Why are you turning them in? Faster? I have a cut down set of 32's that are now 31's labbed that i had on my fountain. Loved em on that boat. It was an 05 35x. Single step. I guess i will try em and see how they work.

turn em in

It did gain about 1.5mph, but more importantly it raised the rpm 200 which was ideal for me, freed the boat up a little more, and the high speed handling is better,docking as they say suffers. But overall I like it better for me and my setup. Acceleration is amazing with 1.50 gears and 32 Maximus 5 blades. And no major drive problems,however I did send one of them back over the winter that was a little tight when I got it, they replaced a few parts and reset the tolerances for a very small fee and its going back on Monday. The guys at Max have been excellent to deal with. Hope this helps with your setup. This is a great venue to share info on, isnt it.
