1996 26' Scarab W/ 502 MPI. No mods. Low to mid 60's on speedo, no GPS yet. Located in Siloam Springs, Arkansas.

Never heard of a Scarab get together. (I'm a little new though) Would be interested in one though. Hell, I'd be happy to get together with any of the owners on here.

nickslick x dim is the prop shaft to the tansom when using the imco 2" shortend lowers this will raise the x 2"

The X dim. is the normal stock mounting height of the drive. raising the x dim. raises the drive. Raising the drive means you don't have to trim as high to cavitate the prop for max speed. Also with a higher drive height your not wasting HP pushing the transom deeper into the water. The only possible problem with the higher drive height is loss of crusing speed due to prop slippage.
