Drives for Magic Cat 34
 
The boat is Magic Scepter 34 and i have it now here in Finland. So could someone give a good advice what drives i should use?
Engines are 588cid + blowers 1000hp each and drives are Teague XR's (1.35) + 34" Maximus. It now runs 105-107mph with this setup.
Im afraid im gonna blow these drives sooner or later so ...
What do you think about this? I have already a deal for those old Teagues so I need your advice!

#6s or NXT.

Let me know if you need me to do logistics here like I did helping you get that 34'.

Thanks,

Shad Burke

We can not put #6 because there is no room for transmitions. We cant move engines forward or then we'll have no back seat.
What do you say about Imco SCX??

You can use an extension box and locate the transmissions in the boxes. That's what we did on mine as there was no room in the boat for the tranny.

Put on a SCX

Arneson bravo conversion (trans is in the box)
X-Power (shifts internal, 36k EACH!)
NXT Transom assembly/extension box (which houses transmission) coupled with a #6 drive
Custom extension box (like check300's) coupled with a #6 drive
SCX-4 (not proven but better on cats then V's)
SCX (slow you down but gain strength)
On the SCX and SCX-4 dont forget the IMCO stainless gimbal ring, helmet, resovior, WCM blueprinted lowers, etc.
