PS we should have started a seperate thread on this......huh
hang time 27 thanks for all the info. It will help me out a lot this fall and i hope that with all the new input i am getting from everyone i will have a nice fast and safe setup come springtime. I never even got a good speed run out of the boat this year before the drive gave out.
