Thumbs up

Shameless Kitty
Glad that you got the pics, It was actually finished on Monday. I just took them last night after getting back from Kentucky last night.

You have a couple of more AO's in your area. I ran the Ohio river on Tuesday afternoon, stock 600's with 32's ran 110 on gaffrig gps. Wants more prop as it was trying to spit the chip out of the box! Sending 34Labs up, that should do the trick! Theres another one that will be up there in about 7 weeks with much more power, I suspect that it will be a near 120's boat. That new set up is the trick, we're seeing about 4-6 more than normal.

Scott-
Inquiring minds want to know:
What is the "new" setup. Drive height? rotation? Weight? CG?
This might benefit some of the older AOs.
TIA

Smile Not More Boost!

We changed engine height and position, and brought the "x" down a small touch and it has picked up speed. I think that along with the weight changes made earlier that this is what has made the difference.

I am actually looking at taking the boost down from 6psi down to 5 psi, because of the added speed found. Our last stock 600 ran 110 with 32p and 112 (different days and weather, might have been more on same day) with 34p on the Ohio river.

Are you running again? When is the Dale hollow shootout?
