41's with Extention Boxes
 
Does anyone have any experience with "FULL" staggered 41 "six pack" with extention boxes. I know a few that have short staggered boats with them and they love them, but I have a "full" stagger and have not heard any results on the set-up.
Thanks in advanced.

yes it was tried...it shot the boat to the moon....they were taken off right away..but it is funny some of the saber guys swore by them....weights are probably different center..the boat that tried them was 3 man stagger race..black firewater...ask around...I was going to do it....but the apache report was not good...herb stottler told me.

Yea, I knew the Mr. Oliver tried them on his 41, but they were not Stelling boxes, they one off customs from Mike Britton at B-Bracket. I don't know if there is any difference though. The people that have put them on their short staggers are real happy with them.

Carl,
You never told me the magic set-up that ya'll did to your 41.

I'm just trying to get the boat to be a little more efficient at cruise. Currently at 3500 rpms I am running right at 60 mph, but the drives are still tucked "in" and I'm running just a little bit of tab. I am turning the drives "in" to help hold the a$$ end down when it gets a little bumpy.

Wicked one said they were the bomb..and he put alot into his set up...also I got the impression that stottler took them off firewater before a whole bunch of experimenting was complete....so I would try it....i was but i scrapped out. :(
