Going to look at a 38zx What To Expect
Going to look at a 2001 38zx with 575sci motors. What kind of hp do these motors make stock? Also Roughly what kind of MPH should this boat be running. It seems that everything I read is that these boats run a little slower. Will the boat run 80-82 in fresh water or is it more of a 73-75 mph boat? Any insight would be great.

a 575 makes 575 hp (maybe a tad more as blue motors usually are) GlassDave had a 38zx with 525sc's and I think he was around 80 so with 575s it should be low mid 80's when properly setup.
|
A 500 efi boat will do 74
Check the transom up near the exhaust per glassdave that area is really the only place that's been of concern on those boats |
Mine runs 67+ but that's with 5 blades. Gets real good mid range. That's with 500efis. There great boats. Good luck.
|
575 sci with boxes should run low 80's GPS.
Should have 31 or 32p b4 props turning 5k to 5.2k wot Is this the one advertised for $39,900? |
Check the transum. Mine is the one that glassdave replaced. The pop up cleats on swim platform leak and it runs down the exhaust into the transum.
I have 615 hp 500 EFI's and I get low 80's. Might be for sale if interested. |
I would not expect low to mid 80's, 78-80 more likely. Glassdaves own boat he said ran a good number with a set of labbed props that was never replicated with any others

Coming back from PIB on Halloween I saw 72.8 on gps. I think I could of seen more if I stayed in it but I was close to the launch and it was starting to get a little choppier out. Mine might be for sale mid summer next year.
