I assume you were at 7" before the shortie. What gains did you see with the shortie drive?

I run the propshaft 3.5" below the keel spinning a 30 pitch P5x doing 92.5 mph with 730 Whipplecharged horsepower.
Always lookin for more, Chris |
Challenger was 5.5" below the pad stock. With an 2.5" Alpha SS shorty it's now right around 3" below the pad. Had to go to a QIV over a 3 blade cleaver to correct alot of slip. Runs 80GPS with a SBC..

My 28 Pantera with notched transom was 4.75" below the bottom with a 3" spacer. With a 2" spacer at 3.75, it was to high and couldn't leverage the bow enough.
I haven't ever really checked the height on my 32 AT. |

Check it and let me know please. Thanks, Chris |
2001 Stingray 230LX, my propshaft is 7.5" below the notched transom and running about 69 with a 430hp (prop) SBC. My speeds range between 68.7 and 70.5 depending which prop I have on it. I have tried a Laser II, a Tempest, a Rev4, and a Mirage +. The mirage makes the boat feel very loose and I have to over trim it to get max speed, but it has the least tendancy to chine walk. I have a -2 XR lower that I am going to try next weekend. I was a little disappointed on how fast the boat went when I got the motor in it, but I still dialing in the driveline. I was expecting mid 70's and I hope the shorty gets me there.
