You would think that would just affect the ease in getting the drive to mount and the spline wear on the drive's driveshaft. The driveshaft from the box to the flywheel is a flanged coupling at both ends. So is the phasing you are talking about between the box driveshaft and the drive's driveshaft? I'm surprised Stelling's does not balance those driveshafts.


Go down to the bottom of this link, it gives an illustration
on phasing.

On their jackshft engines and staggered ( driveshaft models) they( merc) do recommed phasing the driveshaft with
the outdrive u-joints. (which I started to do after reading it in the latest manual I got.)

Great info and some nice set ups. I just wish I had some drives on the back of my boat to turn some good numbers! This thread is keeping me motivated though

BTW, saw the boat owner last night as we were helping another buddy re-bunk his trailer and he said the motors are now 522's. That helps to explain the 605 HP.

I do not know since my drives did not hold up long enough to find out!

I have seen 95 on gps EVERY time I push the sticks forward for a few seconds. This is FULL of fuel, 4+ people, 2 full coolers, all gear for a 4 day weekend sleeping on the boat! Never tried empty with just me in it.

According to J T , Crayolacrazy , BBlades and others I have lots of room to work with props. Currently running 30" stock bravo 4 blades turning out.

Looking forward to some new stronger drives, maybe bravo arneson conversion or the new imco's they are keeping secret. Then some aggresive props and hopefully triple digits!

How many hours can u go between rebuilds? I could only make it 30 to 50 going easy on my imco SC drives. I normally run over 100 hours a summer so making it a couple years without touching drives would be nice!
