I have two right hands on the boat now, what kind of gains would i get if i did switch to c/r set up ? i know it would eliminate torque steer, but would i gain any significant speed?, more speed? , thanks ,

I disagree with fixall. If c/r drives don't improve speed, then why do all twin engine race boats run them? c/r drives can work together to lift the boat or hold the boat in place (prop rotation). there are many aspects to consider, but generally speaking the c/r set-up is more efficient at propelling the hull forward because the drives work in conjunction with the hull and the strakes, not against it. .02 c |
I saw a complete Alpha on the Richmond, VA Craigslist last week, in the Boats section.

Give me a call.

Definitely go for the SEI, I run one of their lowers on my outboard, good piece. As for the C/R, I dunno, prolly handle better.

I know of a pair of c/r alfa ones are for a $1100 a piece all redone

if it helps

He said it was ready to bolt up he didn't say it would work after it was bolted up. There is a gray area in there. You just bite the bullet and move on brother. Alfa's are cheap you will find one. SOrry you got the shaft and the drive didn't.
