Thanks Boot, hope all goes weel with your ride this weekend. I' going to send the drives to Cobra today so I'll get them for next weekend. Randy there also has props that should work.

Something isn't right. With 35" prop and 1.5 gears
3000rpm = 66mph not 100
4000rpm = 88mph with 0 slip not 125.

Marty very good, notice my edit? I realized that I transposed the number of the paper that I wrote them on but when I made the correction on the post I corrected them backwards . Thanks for pointing it out. Otto

Fed Exed the props to merc to get cut to 16 inch diamter. I didnot know that all props are 18 inch diameter when casted then cut to your desired size. I thought they were cast as the size they were sold as.

Otto, I saw those motors at Kurts over the summer. Those are some bad ass blower motors.

Kurt just quietly goes about building some incredible motors. Good luck with them.
