525
 

525 in tantrum got to be 80?

Guessing about that , if it gets +10 mph in a 28 might be more in a 25 cause it's lighter, not sure on my top speed yet with 502mag no gps yet, guessing 67- 68

Tantrum had apretty stout motor in his......not sure of the speed. He sold it to a guy in Kentucky and he says it runs over 80. :cool:

I had a 560hp dyno in my 24 pantera, which may be heavier than a tantrum. I had it up to 75. Current owner has it up around 78-79.
A 525 is rated 525hp at the prop i believe, you'd be 80+ w/ that in a 25AT.:cool:

Then again... see the thread... by chaos.

I am going to send them my prop-they said max. Hp is at 5380 RPM so I am off by 280 RPM-labbing will give me this-just now to find the time to ship prop and wait. I am still debating if it is even worth it?? 400.00 to lab beach the boat and nick the prop??? How much more speed will 300 rpm's actually net me?

risky, i think its more about running the engine in its proper powerband, than the speed you're getting out of it.
I'd 1st try some props before re-labbing yours.

2-4mph...If you lab, you need to budget about $200 a year per lab for prop to maintenance. It is about running in the correct power ban. Less load longer engine life....I would also invest in a back up prop.

2-4 mph gets me 75-78 mph that is worth it. I was talking to a prop shop today and they need to see my prop to see what they can do..thanks for the help
