100 mph Tigers
 
I am looking to see if anyone has some info on TS Tigers running high 90's to low 100's and their handling? I will have my new power back from Zul in a week or so and I am wondering if anyone has some experience with these speeds in a Tiger. I am also putting on Imco SCX drives as well. The boat seems to have a pretty high x dimmension so I am staying with stock lowers. Should I spin in or out? When I talked Phil at LipShip a couple of months ago he said when the boat was new and they Tested the boat with 4 blade Bravos the boat got loose over 90 and ran like 93. He also said they went to a set of Herrings and the boat ran a couple mph's faster and was very stable. So I am wondering if I should run a 5 blade? Maybe the stern lift is giving the boat more stability? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

Oh boy, you should just rename your boat "the color of money". Fresh power, new drives herring props. In all seriousness good luck frank I hope it all comes together fairly easily and well!

I don't think Herrings are my near future my wife would start holding out on me:poopoo: but it could be something to look for in the future or used. I just waxed the boat and cleaned it all up it is shining like new penny, and just waiting for the transplant.

I've got a pair of 34 Hering 5 blades and 37 Merc Racing 4 blades that I'd be willing to let you try. Could be down that way sometime within the next few weeks.
