whipple is now on.Fighting little problems now.Could have saved myself alot of headaches if i would have had a mechanical fuel gauge....NEVER NEVER TRUST an electric
fuel pressure gauge.They suck and never are accurate.The whipple wants exact fuel pressure are it will run horrible
or burn up.....

Chad
after checking out my old boat I now do not think you should raise your X more than 1/2 inches.

You might want to rethink the shortie drive. Call AO they will tell you the same thing. My cousin has a 26 that came with a shortie, he picked up 4 mph by switching to a standard length XR drive. If you want PM him he is Max Velocity on the board. He is running a big power blower motor the boat runs about 104 GPS.

Shorty does'nt alow enough prop in the water to keep the bow elevated. The AO does'nt pack as much air as some like Elims ect.
