Are you running the standard konrad lowers or the shorties? He is spinning stock 30p bravos.
Did any of the Flatdeck 38's have notched transoms? |
Mild Thunder; I am running the standard Konrads. I raised my X with the TRS drives a few years ago when I had to replace my transom board. I was 3.25 inches above the stock height initially with the 1.5 inch shorter than TRS Konrads.RMPRam is the only 38 flatdeck I know of with a notched transom. Rick

Kris, my motors are supercharged 468s dynoed at 600hp.I cruise at about 3600 as you but at 56 to 58 depending on load and best top speed of 84 gps at 5400 in 3 to 5 foot waves, 2 people low fuel. A rush that never seems to get old! Rick.

Kris; when my drives were deep I ran 27 pitch mirage 3 blades with Bobs nose cones with best speed of 76mph. 4blades were just to much prop for my small motors. When I raised my drives the 3 blades were blowing out getting on plane, switched to stock 30p 4 blade bravo 1 and picked up 4 mph, the following season labbed the props to 31s and picked up another 2mph. Before Konrads we had a best speed of 82mph. Rick

kvogt; Kris I was hopeing your horsepower nos. would be closer to mine, at the time I was looking I was told I would have a 10 to 15% all around performance increase with the arnesons, X demension being a non issue. You are smokin running 90 in a flatdeck, youre closing in on RMPRam , the fastest flatdeck I have heard of. Rick

Thats fast. When I had 600hp motors and TRS drives mine went 69 or 70 tops spinning 24 or 26 bravo 1 props. Raising the X makes a big difference.

Mark Mark do you spin your props in or out? Kool-aid's turn in on his gun. Running mine in on my Formula gains some speed/bow lift. I get about 70-71 with the maximus 5 blades 26p turning in. I believe my motors make around 600ish hp. Kris would know! Love these little motors! :drink: |
Mild Thunder; very suprised to read you are running a 5 blade max on a 402 formula , what drives are you running? Rick
|
Mark; 69 to 70 seems about right, really? At what RPM do your motors develop 600 hp and are you running the drive spacer in your Konrads ? Rick
