Thanks guys. I hope Dennis is proud. BBLADES has always operated with Dennis in mind.

Ths Bravo 1 props do have more Labbing possibilities but the Hydro's have thir place. On Bajas the B1's usually work better before or after Labbing.

[QUOTE=marylandmark;2275142]I've heard that B1's take better to labbing and hydro's are better stock. Did you ever run with the stock Hydro- just wondrering...

I ran for a year with the stock Hydro. The particular lab I received improved the hole shot, but even after an additional lab tweak, there was almost no improvement on the top end. Maybe I should have used ThrottleUp to lab the Hydro, but Hall's reportedly knows what Velocity boats need.

Labbing does work with Hydro's, it just has to be done completely different from the norm. I'm not sure many shops including the manufacturer knows this. We have experimented to great lengths with these props. You can make them better in certain areas but the Bravo 1's are more moldable. That's not to take anything away from Hydromotive.

Escape Velocity, can you tell me what you are running for an engine? Are you spinning the prop RT or LT?

Thanks!


Jeff

MarylandMark, good research on finding my engine picture! This picture was taken before the rest of the Raylar dress-up plates were added. The engine dynoed 576 HP with the stock fuel system, stock throttle body, and stock computer program. I have upgraded all three components as this is required to achieve the full potential of the Raylar HO 600. I'm running a right hand propeller.
