very nice, cant wait to hear what kind of performance you get out of the new drives. any phone numbers for the two friends on the left side. lol keep us updated:)

Hey Ryan, if you you wouldn't mind giving an update and what you've gone through as far trying different props, rotation, and spacers as there are some people who are interested in what you're going through.

I don't know if he comes on here much but I might see him at work tonight, if so I will tell him to post, Smitty

k here we go drive height started at 3/4 in below running surface at neutral trim.Spun props out boat didn't like that acted like the bow and stern were fighting each other.Spun in boat had bad bow steer added 1in spacer still spinning in boat plans and handles like a dream.So we ended up 1 3/4 in below running surface at neutral trim and spinning in. Props tried 30's ran 78 at 4800 tried 28's ran 79 at 5600 on rev but had 5 people going to run the 30's again because found out this weekend that i needed to trim farther than i was weather was crappy when we tried the 30's so only ran for a few.I would recommend these drives just going to have to be patient as far as getting everything dialed in i think the end result for top end will be 85 to 87 mph so we will be 5 mph faster than the xr's and have a good piece of mind on the drive strenght.Hope this helps.

Thanks for the update Ryan!

I kinda figured the 33 and 35 pitch woulda been too much prop.

80mph is pretty cool for a 46BT! I wonder how it'd run with some imco extension boxes and no spacer

Any more seat time with the new drives?

He was only out 1 day this weekend with a full load of friends. Even though ryan is one of the better drivers out there he admits he is getting better dialing in the new setup everyday. Not much new to post besides better handling/comfort/confidence everyday.

Is that Sopers old boat?

So nothing new as far as speed gain, getting on plane with the -4's, how they operate, easy to shift hard to shift, give us the scoop.
