P.S. 5 TO 7 MPH LIKE YOU LOST WHAT WE HAVE LOST WITH THE B-MAX ,BUT ONCE FIXED THEY DON'T BREAK

See ya at McCormick place !!!!

LAST SUMMER'S PROP SHAFT BREAKAGE WAS DO TO THE HEAT TREATER NOT HARDING SHAFTS FAR ENOUGH UP THE SHAFT. I BROAK 4 SHAFTS MY SELF,AND IM NOT THE ONLY ONE.THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED.SHAFTS ARE REPLACED AT NO CHARGE. UNFORTUNATILY THIS SHAFT PROB HURT EVERYONE. ONE NOTE TO MAKE IS WHEN YOU BREAK MERCURY PARTS THEIR STILL YOURS TO KEEP AND BUY SOME MORE.

Will my big shaft Imco 2" shorties bolt up to a B-max? if so how much can I save by buying your drives without the lowers? My shafts have already been tested..I may be getting closer to buying a pair of B=maxs than I figured..Let me know:D :D

Drives
 

WildthingTaz.
I will be at the show in Chicago on opening day and you are one of the main reasons I will be there..If the story is true about your drives not breaking,that you stand behind them but it takes an extra 50 hp to run what I now run,Looks like I will be also looking for some new pulleys to turn my boost up a little.. Keep in mind I will be asking how much your vertical shaft is, I sorta of like the looks of my polished Imco lowers..:D :D
