Hey Carl,

I think there maybe a 312 in NSW a few years back. I got word of it around 2005.

chris craft stinger 26
 
hello i have a 26 stinger 1989 with twins 5.7 liter and alpha drives and i might need some information on performance to get a few miles per hour/i was getting 55 mph at 4700 rpm with a 21p prop and the guy that did my engines told me that since i put hydralic roller cam and i did a little bit of head work ,that i could easily run 5600 rpm and the engines will spin that with no problem but i will have to step down to a 19p prop.
please someone help me decide.

i have more pictures of cabin and new engines coming to u guys
this motors are only turning 4500 rpm with a 21p prop.
t
my mechanic told me that this motors could easily turn 5500 rpm cause the are roller cams so i would have to step down to a 19p prop
what do you guys think?

We built the stinger 222 you saw in hot boat,one sick ride,Blown intercooled 468 no expense spared,show quality everything,my customer loved that boat ended up giving it to his son,i think he has it stored in a warehouse somewhere,will try to scan and post some pics i know i don
't have any digital pics,was a few years back

Hey that would be great.I think it was red and black.Do you remember the HP it had?Eddito without knowing what's actually in your engines,specs etc it's hard to judge where you should be running them.Were they ever Dynoed?If they are the standard issue Merc motors with roller cams i would suggest 5000 rpm limit.If you are at 4500 now 19's should get about 5200 which is acceptable.

what is the deal with the early stinger called the "99's" Like the first boats out of the molds?

Hello, I just bought a 1985 260 stinger. 2 yamaha outboards, I like how it runs, but now it needs some work on the cabin and floor. Need advice
