Re: My HP 500 EFI Whipple motor made 903 ft/TQ and 839 HP

Did you need to modify the transom? Does it use existing holes?

The only thing I had to do was change gimbal bearings over to the XR style bearing, then set up the steering because it uses a different wing plate. You can either get longer steering rams, re-position the rams on the back of the boat, shim the rams out or leave it the same.

If you leave it the same you're going to loose some steering radius.

My offer still stands. I'll go pick them up for you when I pick the Nortech up. Get on Deans AZZ to finish up. It will save Dean a shipping chargeas well, and they should fit nicely in my 8' bed. Later Jeff
