Do all the new 38 ZR's come with the staggered setup only?

Harper, Im sorry, i will see what i can do for you. The reason you did not get a response is our entire sales team and then some are split between 2 shows (milwaukee and madison) right now and i am kind of short handed. we just sold our stock 38zr to Lauderdale. We do have a 35zr in stock. 496hos. i wil let ya know what i come up with. - Andrew

Props.. simple math. (on paper).
A 3 blade is of course not applicable for the big ZX's.
4 Blade Mercs all the way.
Proven...
And Lab props are NOT always the way to go....
The 5 Blade theory in my humble opinion is expensive HYPE. Write the check.....
This from a man who will never spend another dollar on props, I learned my lesson as a pup.
Clean them up and remount them.... GO BOATING.
Props = $$ money I could have spent elsewhere.
F**K 2 MPH..... who is that desperate for bragging rights.
One GOOD WAVE and you miss a move and your passed by your buddy anyway.
Be on task and attentive, drive smart, and you can pass the fastest of boats, the driver is the weak link! Although most always say their WIFE said SLOW DOWN or else... LOL...
I plan to keep my money and my balls and just out drive the rookies.....
Most see a 3 or 4 and immediately back off... NOT ME.

Although 5 blade props on my Eliminator Daytona was the best thing I ever did...
no blow out when planing, 4 mph faster at mid-range, much smoother and better handling and yes, a bit slower at wot, but who cares? I'm never at wot anyway...
