I had read the NGK did not hold up somewhere so I got some AC Delco's........still waiting for Andy to water test, called him twice yesterday

I'd love to try that on my H2X.........hold on!!!!!!

Thats all I ran in my Mag's and Ho's along with the 502 and 500's. I've only heard of one issue.

On Sat morning at the launch while I was pulling out of the channel there was an H2X backing in with a satin shorty and box of some sort. I never could find him the rest of day to get some info out of him about it.

I'd really like to talk to someone that has tried it. I'd hate to spend the $$ to gain 2mph. As shallow as the boat already is, lifting the prop would have to be of some benefit.... ??

That would be very interesting. Adding some length to the H2X probably wouldnt hurt the handling in the rough either.

Word on the street was the H2X really likes the -2" lower. Not sure about the box though.

Keith Atlanta

FWIW - I think that is sort of true. The NGK's were really good but for a shorter peroid. The Delco's were almost as good but lasted longer.

But I also drive around on one engine!

Well, I think we are making progress.....the boat was water tested on sat and the leak seems to be fixed....I guess it was some kind of gasket that had to be made on a water inlet line that goes through the box....I didn't see it but he says it is fixed now.



Problem #2....I guess the boost pump was bad....the fuel pump can keep up under 3000 RPM but needs the boost pump after that to help supply fuel? I am not an expert on these things but that is what the mechanic is telling me. No power to the boost pump so he is going to change it....$250 for the pump...ouch..but at least we are making progress he said it should be done tue or wed as he had to order the part.

Glad to hear you are moving forward...best of luck!
