Where on what site? 800??
The drives are 1600's and they are rated for 1,000 hp back when they were made. They use two chains on a common shaft to handle the power.
It uses an ASD6 rear housing on the Second Effort or Arneson Drop Box. There were a few different versions of the 1600 made by Second Effort and Arneson back in the day. The input/output shaft seals are different sizes for example, the input shafts are stainless steel vs. steel on some models, etc. etc..
They are all the same but at the same time a bit different. The ratio is the ratio for life in these drives meaning you cannot change a 1.32:1 into a 1.5:1 and vice versa as they were machined for the center distance required. The ASD8's are different in that respect.
I spotted the ASD6 aft retaining ring in the photo and that is what alerted me to what you have.

So with this drive I can try a Merc prop.. Any recomedations? I have NONE. I have a set of 34 - 4 blades.. That I can try...Not sure of the Diameter. The guy who was looking at it before me had these. They couldn't spin them up with the 750hp in it. I think I will try his at first with the 950hp maybe I can... Atleast to get a start point.
Thanks for all the advice... Trust me Everyone has been so much help...

These are the motors. They are coming out a xmas. I want to freshen them up... Paint them some colors. Just go through things to make sure I am ready for spring.
Boat need a little LUV... Not much just some really good going over. Couple gauges not working. Engine area needs a REALLY good cleaning. Maybe some fresh paint....
Seats need a good cleaning. I am not happy happy with the dash.. Gotta think about that one for a little while...
Any Advice??

I want to add intercom to the boat... A GPS Speedo and may be two in the head rest of the right and left seats for the rear passengers.... Does any one have a swim platform??
With the drives hanging off the back so far. I thought about a tubular platform so I can at least put someone on the back of the boat when docking??? Any Ideas..... I heard the boat is AWESOME docking. Tranny's help too I was told..
come on Good weather!!

Hmmm. Your drives are not 1600's truly speaking. These are a 10" drop center rather than a 16" drop, hence 1600. Yours are rare so to speak as there are fewer of the 10" drops made back then.
I see you have the ZF transmissions to handle the RH and LH rotation.
