Re: Looking For Pat
I am not sure about the hull, but I am pretty sure it was blueprinted when it left the factory. It is possible that the hull now has something in it as I think it has spent most of its life on a trailer.
I know that Rick also experimented with the box on and off but did no see any change. I would see the porpoising when I was at WOT, trimmed up. I would drop the tabs(they are still the big 380's correct) just a little and it would settle right down as I am sure you already know. Good luck Dan |

You are probably right and I am thinking twin 625 Ilmors would be a nice package and setup for that boat or maybe Whippled 525's !! :evilb: |

I would think so. I bet it would dance in the upper 90's with 625 hp. :D |

Rick (rsteiny) never did end up removing the box while he owned it, I did after I purchased it. To remove the porpoising I have to use a lot of tab which scrubs serious speed and you still can feels it's urge. What I'm looking for from Active Thunder is what do they recommend for my hull, slight hook, flat with no hook, etc. I want to have some one look at it to see if this is what is creating my porpoising problem. Thanks again, Mike |
