Qusetion about using outboard cleavers on inboards
I spoke to a racer that told me that he used outboard cleavers on inboard bravo cat and it gave him more top end, I wanted to know has anyone tried this before and would it damage the drive to do so?

Cleavers perpared (lab finish) for O/B are thinned more than an I/O prop. Which means it should be a little faster and crack sooner. The out drive dosent care if it has a lighth weight thinned prop or a thicker I/O grind until the blade flies off.

aren't cleavers designed to run high in the water near the surface??
I have a LH cleaver for my old volvo driven donzi and because of the low X dimension and lack of trim I couldn't get the cleaver to it's sweet spot so it didn't give me any more speed plus i needed gloves to get the damn thing on or off
