What would it do with different gears?

Different gears, dry sumps and turn them in, maybe herrring props. Think it can be gotten to 85 without more engine work?

I believe the drives have 1.28 or 1.31 ratio now. If the boat had 1.5's it would allow the engines to turn up in rpm and result in speeds around 86-87 MPH. The boat is built for rough water, it has structure to it. I have 2 sets of 1.5 ratio number 6 gear sets For Sale.
